I asked my W to practice dancing during the week. We had not practiced at home for some time. She doesn't want to practice at the studio after class, or at the fitness center, but she does want to practice. She wanted to see that the investment towards my private lessons was paying off. After the session, she noted that she had seen improvement. I don't mind accountability. It's better to practice the new material at home, so there is some polish when we're on a public dance floor.
We're off to Puerto Rico this week for ten days. It will be our first trip since September 2010. I think she would like to travel as part of a group. One dance couple in our group like to take dance cruises--I have a feeling we're going on one next year. We fussed a lot on our last trip. She failed to speak up about her needs and was upset with me when we didn't do what she wanted to do enough. I hope by adding a few extra days this trip, we can solve that problem.
