WOW!
At last Thursday’s Salsa at the Avalon, we had TEN Rebuilders! What great fun! Darcy said it best: “You can’t get better fun for $8 !!” Turns out that Mike M is a secret salsa maniac, Jim L is a crazed lesson taking Latin macho man, and Denise….well, we have to follow Denise around with a fire extinguisher. HOT!
So, come one, come all—Salsa is every Thursday at The Avalon—speaking only for myself, I’m going until I get it right!
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8….
WHERE: Avalon Studio, 63rd and Arapahoe in Boulder
WHEN: 7:15, class starts at 7:30, open dance at 8:30…
COST: $8

ELEVENTH NIGHT UPDATE!
We have an update for the 11th Night plans!
DATE: Saturday, February 20th
LOCATION: Laura A’s place in Broomfield—which is a perfect equidistant drive for us all—excellent location! THANK YOU LAURA!!
She has reserved the Clubhouse at her complex for our fun! ALSO, and this is HUGE, she’s offered her home as a secondary location for babysitting…
SO—let’s make this a family friendly deal AND our 9th/10th Night continuation—
Family Friendly Pot Luck dinner at 5:00 with music and the whole bit… We have the BEST pot luck’s!
6:30 or thereabouts kids retreat to Laura’s place for some planned activities… We do our 9th/10th Night Question Fun! Everyone still have their list?
8:30 or thereabouts we all get back together for music! Laura reports that the clubhouse isn’t “huge,” but big enough—it’ll be GREAT! AWESOME!!
LIFE IS GOOD! We’ll need some of you who wish to bring kiddos to help plan some activities for them—and Laura has one 13 year old sitter—we could use at least one more of similar age to help watch the little ones…talk to your older kids and see if they are interested. If we all pitch in a couple of bucks we can pay sitters for the group and maybe buy a few activity related things—fun stuff for them to do!
After, we’ll all hang out and help Laura CLEAN UP! Many hands….

Put on your Dancin' Shoes!: That Eighties Band! (Feburary 5th)
Hello RB Buddies!
Here's the latest from Lynn and I on seeing "That 80s Band" on February 5th.
Where: Nissi's @ 95th and Arapahoe in Lafayette
When: Feb. 5
Time: 7:30 until 11:00 PM
Dinner: Available beginning at 6:30
Cost: $12
The deal on what to do to get us all together in one or two tables:
1) Go to http://www.clubnissis.com/nissis/thateightiesbandfeb52010.html to order your own ticket.
In speaking with Teresa at Nissi's she suggested you do this sooner rather than later
2) On the credit card check out page, there is a comments section at the bottom.
- In this comment box note: With Nancy Compton Group
3) Email me (please copy Lynn) when you have purchased your ticket
- Indicate if you noted in the comments with the group or not
- Note if you plan to join us for dinner
Lynn mentioned these folks are in for the evening, please still email to let me know when you have purchased your tix so I can make sure I confirm table seating with Nissi's before the event.
Lynn, Nancy, Darcy, Pam, Jim L., Emily, Adrienne
A few things to know:
The show starts at 7:30, but Nissi's offers a great small plate menu and bar.
Nissi's is a supper club and as part of the great price on tix, we are encouraged to dine before / during the show.
I'll plan to arrive around 6:45 for drinks and dinner. If anyone would like to meet earlier let me know and I could join you.
Notes from the Nissi's site:
Happy Hour: 5 - 6 p.m.
Dinner: 6;30 - 9 p.m.
All shows begin at 7:30 (try to arrive no later than 7 p.m.)
PLEASE JOIN US FOR DINNER BEFORE AND DURING THE SHOW.
We serve award-winning "small plates" cuisine, which is smaller portions
at smaller prices, and designed to be shared and enjoyed throughout the
evening. We also serve wine and beer, along with a limited cocktail menu.
GET DIRECTIONS and all other information at www.nissis.com.
Looking forward to dancing the night away with you and reliving the 80s! Woohoo!
Nancy and Lynn~

eleven…
“e•lev•en (noun) something in a numbered series with a value of 11”… and in this case it’s about time!
ANNOUNCING: Rebuilders Fall 09 Eleventh Night!
WHEN: Saturday, February 20th, 2010 at 5:00 pm
WHERE: OK sports fans—HELP!
A number of us have talked about this for the last couple of weeks—we need to get this together!
Best date on the calendar for most seems to be February 20th, a Saturday.
However: location, location, location… that’s the issue.
We’ll scale back the plans and skip the need for space to allow a dance—no problem there, we can still do some music—but we do need a spot for us all to land! We can do a dance another time, for a gathering that we can invite guests and kids and the whole 9 yards…
Current thoughts are that we need to have one of our MOST AMAZING pot luck’s, followed by taking care of “unfinished business,” and continuing our 9th and 10th night questions on relationships and sexuality. Could be lots of fun! Are you in?
If so, Mark the 20th on your calendar—and shoot me your ideas about WHERE we might pull this off!
Love you all!
Jim, Lynda, Denise and Steve

That Eighties Band at Nissi's
Hey Everybody!
Let's relive those 80's memories/songs on Feb. 5. I hope you saved that Friday.....Tickets are $12 and the show starts at 7:30 and they'll play until about 11 pm. I think Nancy was planning on working with Teresa to get us a table, etc., but I would like to know who is planning on going so we can get the ball rolling. Trust me, you don't want to miss out.
So, can you let Nancy or I know if you are planning on attending? We'll probably need to buy our tickets pretty quickly. You can go to www.nissis.com and buy your ticket NOW if you would like.
Hope to see you there!

From Denise--LET'S COOK!
Hi Everyone!
Many of you have heard me rave about my favorite restaurant in Longmont, Terroir. They occasionally offer cooking classes that are a lot of fun. Several of you have asked me to let you know when classes are available, but I can't remember who all was interested! These aren't really classes for a very beginner cook, but Tim is pretty flexible and easy going. They are a great value - $65 for 3 hours of instruction, a fabulous lunch, and a $10 gift certificate to the restaurant. Contact Terroir directly if you want to take a class (303) 651-0630. Let me know if you want to keep receiving emails about Terroir's events. Feel free to email me any questions!

From Darcy! Pampered Chef Party!
Happy New Year to Everyone!
I hope you all can make it to the Pampered Chef party on January 23rd at 5:00 at my house. We're hoping this will be a fun event. (Fun is not overrated!) Come and join us even if you are not into cooking utensils, etc. It is not intended to be a pressured selling event at all.
Kids and friends are welcome.
It will be a pot luck. Please, bring a dish to share or something to drink. Laura C. will demonstrate/make a dessert for us. Perhaps Jim K. will bring us some good music.
See you soon!
Darcy
P.S. For those of us who are participating in the Graduate Rebuilding class at my house this coming Thursday, if you want to arrive a bit before the class starts that's fine, especially if you're coming from work. Come anytime between 5:30 and 6:30. Again, if you want snacks feel free to bring something.

Cowtown Goddess, C'est Moi!
Happy New Year my precious friends -
Thanks to Jim K. for choosing blogger.com as our social e-venue! I have recently revived an old blog on this site myself, and would like to invite you all to visit. This is an experiment in self-expression and for me. As I become more familiar and comfortable with the site, I plan to use it as a continuation of my RB progress. I'll be musing on divorce recovery, in slice-of-life observations. As the very trusted members of my new post-divorce family, I welcome your comments, suggestions and feedback! I imagine the possibility of an online continuation of our RB group work here, if anyone is iterested and the mood strikes. The best to all of you in 2010! Blessings! Lynda(www.cowtowngoddess.blogspot.com)
