The Balcony Blogger "Catch up " 1

So now we play the "catch up" game as I have content that's been sitting around through many different situations.... We are on a motivation trip and are ready to get back into things even if that may be only on line....

I have got serious ways to make money on line while we wait out the crazy unprecedented trip the World is taking right now.... We will be growing 4 A STAR with a brand new website and new things to offer everyone... in the meantime, let's get caught up in here.... so we go back to our Kindness event. We covered this event last year and now we bring you some new content for the event that took place in November.  Hopefully, we will be doing this again in November coming and all of this will be behind us....

So Red Bank NJ is the way we kick off National Kindness week. It starts with the streets being blocked off for the cool "Dance with Kindness" event.  People can register on line and learn the dance to participate in.... then everyone rehearses on a back lot... and then the dance explosion begins....;

Heading up the Red Bank event is my good friend and business associate TereseRolke....

find her on Face Book and tell her Ava sent you to find out more about Kindness week.... Here are some highlights from the event....

Well, I must say we have all been through something historic between November and now.... let's look to the future ....join us in November when we hope to Dance again in Red Bank !

Enjoy !

Hang in there.....

Well hello hello hello.....

Wow ! Are we all going through it or what?  Between whirlwind "stuff" and all the new "stuff" going on now.... it's a wonder I can even get in here..... We have A LOT of catching up to do and with people staying at home for the most part, maybe we can provide some interesting reading...

For right now, I want to just speak to the matter at hand. Whether you are working from home, working out in the public, serving the public or not working at all ( and going crazy).... just take it one moment at a time, one breath at a time...

I have no idea what our "New Normal" will look like or even when it will look like.... yet stress is a factor that can make everything worse....

The best we can do right now is do what we feel is right in our heart and stay clean....

WASH YOUR HANDS FREQUENTLY ( and at least 20 seconds.... singing Happy Birthday twice or going through the alphabet will give you the proper time to wash your hands)

STAY AWAY FROM NSAIDS/ ADVIL ANYTHING LIKE THAT...Tylenol or like Tylenol is fine

STAY HOME IF YOU CAN... Or if you go out, follow guidelines and social distance....

All of these things are said to keep us safer and avoid spreading .

I am no expert yet I am watching and learning.... find actual facts...don't buy in to some of the stuff that is just not true ! Use trusted sources for your information....

That all said....we are in this together and this will pass at some point so Hang in there....

In the meantime, I will be back tomorrow with much needed catch up !

Stay safe and be well..... make sure you breathe.... do some light exercise....go for a walk around your house or development.... do a hobby...get in here and read -  LOL

Love ,

 #Thanksgiving

Thankful for...

Hello Monday....
First off I'd like to thank everyone for helping take this blog to over 67,000 viewers worldwide. I love it when I watch those numbers LOL...yet that is not all that I am thankful for. There are many things, yet one of the things I'm MOST thankful for is friendship.
There are so many of you near and far that are really supportive and I love being around those types of people.

The person ( people ) I would like to mention today , I have blogged about before when I only met he and his lovely wife for the first time. Now we have grown into a friendship and I'm so excited about that. This person is none other than the amazing JOHN MONFORTO!

Johnis a wonderful Entertainer who not only does Elvis yet is known for the many faces of the legends that he does on stage ... like Jerry Lewis, Patton, characters from Fiddler on the Roof, Entertainers like Dean Martin, and Phantom of the Opera to name a few. If you get a chance to check out John's One Man Show it's truly amazing.

I am not only excited to blog about John and his wife Debbie as performers yet I'm truly honored to call them friends and I am thankful for that.

So what are you thankful for this year as we move into the Thanksgiving holiday and then head towards Christmas Hanukkah Kwanzaa and then the new year. Looking forward to talking with you all again soon. Have a wonderful wonderful Thanksgiving

Kindness Part 2 of 2

Hello All,

Well today we touch on the 2nd part of Kindness week. National Kindness Day is actually tomorrow Nov. 13th... (love that #). 

....And on the Sunday before National Kindness Day ( World Kindness Week).... we head over to Red Bank , NJ  for the 6th Annual Dance for Kindness Day in Red Bank. Now my colleague and good friend , Terese Rolke ,  had been running this event for many years now...the 6th time in Red Bank !

Hats off to Red Bank where they block off part of the main street for 2 hours and provide security and more for this event !

So this event is designed to Kick off World Kindness Week and was started by a cool organization called  LIFE VEST INSIDE

This is a fun filled event and all about the reminder that we should all be KIND to one another.  Kindness doesn't stop anything and actually makes you feel good inside.  It also promotes healthy body chemistry when you are kind, dance, smile and generally make yourself and others feel good. 

I had so much fun in Red Bank, NJ on Sunday.  Terese does such a great job with this event and has an amazing support system around her including New Jersey Ballroom who provides the rehearsals and directs the World Wide Dance Flash Mob each year ! Woo Hoo !

Also would like to give a shout out to the students of Monmouth College and to the 

amazing eWomen Network team of supporters at the event making it all so much fun !

It was a beautiful day in Red Bank on Sunday.... 

Also, the creators of this event, Life Vest Inside allows each Director to pick a local charity and a portion of what is collected that day goes back to a local group too ! This year it was Soul Kitchen

To find out more about this great event, visit www.lifevestinside  .  Next year's event will take place on Sunday Nov. 8th. It is only 10.00 to register to dance at this event.... 

Enjoy the pics and videos and we will catch you next year, in Red Bank New Jersey !

Of course, 4 A STAR was there to cover all this for you. Enjoy !
