SAVE THE DATE (and find one) FOR THE PROM!​
[FONT=&quot]Save the Date (and make sure to find one) for ?The Prom,? a retro-celebration to benefit the Seaside Repertory Theatre, a non-profit organization and the only professional year-round theatre company in Northwest Florida. ?The Prom,? which has been relocated to the Lyceum Lawn in Seaside, will be held Friday, April 18th at 7pm and will offer dancing to the party tunes of Hotwire, great food by Criolla?s, a full hosted bar complete with spiked punch, and crazy fun with absolutely no silent auction! The highlight of the evening will be the crowning of ?The Prom? King and Queen! Prom-goers are encouraged to dress reminiscent of their own high school prom so that attire will span the decades, or come as a ?Chaperone? dressed in normal party wear.[/FONT] Tickets to ?The Prom? are $100 and can be purchased by calling 850.231.0733 or at www.seasiderep.org. Reserved tables for eight are also available for $1,000 and must be reserved by phone. [FONT=&quot] ?The Prom? is sponsored by Dungan-Nequette Architects and Tracery Interiors.

I know Tootsie can get you a fake set of plastic boobs but I dunno where you'd get the belly. :lol:

Mine was the most hilarious, custom made, baby blue satin bodice with satin covered buttons. Below the empire waste was lace over blue satin. Long lace sleeves with blue satin cuffs. It only added about 10 pounds. What was I thinking???? :yikes:I have a picture I can scan later......maybe.

Tonight I was bored and letting my hair air dry, and then I thought it might be fun (since I wasn't doing anything and my hair was going to be a curly mess anyway) to see if I could recreate my big 80's curly hair. It used to look kind of like this...



Oh my God. It worked.

I couldn't keep it from settling a bit, because my current arsenal lacks the greatest hair product ever...

I second that! You have such gorgeous hair...

Back in the 80's I rebelled and cut all mine off in a "pixie" (or something like that.)
or like Mary Stuart Masterson's

Every time I went for a haircut, my stylist would shake her head sadly and say, "You could have such big hair!" :lol:

Someone told me I needed to do South Beach Diet or the Zone if I want to lose inches around my waist. Both of those diets are EXTREMELY inconvenient, and I wilt like a pansy in June with no carbs in my life.

But I need to lose at least 2 inches if I'm going to be comfortable in my dress, and I would love to lose a few more and fit into my mom's old dress. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I'm going to try to run in an elastic back belt tomorrow--back when I was landscaping I could usually knock off an emergency inch or two around the middle that way, but I don't know how it works long-term...:idontno:

If you want a quick fix....it is Atkins all the way. You can eat a lot, just not the carbs. 20 carbs a day. You will see the weight drop off. Then the trick is to transition to a "normal" diet, introducing carbs and cutting down on the fat that you have been eating with Atkins. I am not a doctor so don't tell me that this is unhealthy. No one is talking about health! You can certainly do it for one month. I lost 25 pounds.....a few years ago.

Holy cow...25 pounds?! I just don't know that I can eliminate carbs without falling over. I get so sluggish!

I am going to work on taking out the big carbs--bread, pasta, chips, etc. Unfortunately, I'm addicted to frozen yogurt, which has carbs. (And that "Carb Smart" ice cream is an insult to ice cream!) Baby steps...

Serenity Spa has a sauna....I foresee that in my future.

As for pictures, it's too late. I deflated. I must order some Vavoom. :funn: I can't believe they still make it!

Did you use Freeze spray? I can't remember who made it but the girls used it and it was very helpful with the wall of bangs.

Steele Mama, what a day I've had!

Lunch: Sandwiches. On bread. The optional food was pasta. I had a stinkin' salad instead.

Meanwhile, I'm celebrating my last days with my band kids, so I sat here with FOUR DOZEN CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES under my desk all day. I didn't eat a single one. I finally locked the rest in a cabinet in the other room...

It's gonna be a long 32 days.
