Remember that song
You Be Illin'?
Well
I
Be
Illin'
So I wrote down all the things coming up on my calendar.
B-days, trips, kid's stuff, scrapbooking stuff, stuff I need to do to the house.
Here is my advice.
Don't do it.
Not a good idea....if you are illin like me.
So I have a bazillion things calling my attention and what do I do?
Pull everything out of my closet and re-organize it.
Took me a couple days because I have this family that has all these "needs" and I couldn't just work non stop. I got rid of a lot of stuff.
A
Lot.
However, there are a few items I kept around.
Like this.
My
prom
dress.
You are looking for the joke here.
Nope.
None.
I wore that in 1991 to the prom.
No
I do not know what I was thinking.
Actually...
It fit.
That was a rare thing for me when looking for clothes when I was a kid.
I know
cry me a river.
The skinny don't get a lot of sympathy.
But I wasn't skinny.
Honey
I was scrawny.
Scraw-neee.
I called this my Pepto Bismal dress.
Because if Pepto Bismal were blue...that is the color of this dress.
It has a big stain on the skirt now.
My sister wore it for a play or something.
Yes
As costuming.
She also wore it to a wedding shower given for me.
And ugly bridesmaid's dress themed shower.
Hey - no one at my prom had on the same dress.
Whew.
Averted that horrible fashion misstep.
Can I just tell you how much I wanted to be there standing on the beach
Wearing THIS when I met Tara Whitney for the photo shoot?
It was kinda bulkie to add to the luggage...but MAN, I wanted to do that.
So I put on the dress yest and walk into the room where Abbie was sitting.
I had my camera.
She didn't ask any questions.
She just hopped up and asked where I wanted to stand while she took the pictures.
What a sport.
It is like I dress oddly and ask her to take pictures often or something.
Oh
And
yes.
I gots a new hair cut.
Figured my hair is always sticking out somewhere....might as well go with that.
Happy Tuesday.
