Hello friends
Sorry that I disappeared for such a long time again, but I got very busy lately, so that I hardly have the time to do things just for fun in Internet. But, I'll take my time for OD again.
The grand opening was a huge success! There were very many people visiting the courses and even more visiting the evening show and the party. There came also our local newspaper, making interviews and pictures, which are most probably going to get published next week.
But the day after the grand opening we had a problem: the bathroom of the studio got blocked and all the water run out, so the studio got flooded. My husband, daughter and I went to clean up the mess of the grand opening and we got a shock, because the dressing room was under water Fortunately we could find a plumber quite quickly, who cleaned the pipes, but we needed more than six hours to make the studio dry. Most of the carpets I had in the dressing room got spoiled, so I had to throw them away and buy new ones. But fortunately there were not so many things that got destroyed, it was just a big shock and much work.
I thought that the problem was solved, but three days later I had a new flood in the bathroom. Fortunately it was during I was giving lessons, so we could call the plumber and stop it before the whole studio got flooded again. But it was very strange, that the closet got blocked so quickly again. I suspect that there are some energetic things going on, so I'll have to do something against it.
Despite the flooding, I am happy that the grand opening was so successful and I got quite some new students
