I'm Thinking Spangly With A Split Up The Side

Time for a party update. After reading the comments to my upcoming Valentine/Helen Louise/100th Post Giveaway Party, I can tell y'all are ready to let your hair down and TANGO! I've decided to add something to the giveaway each time I post because I want it to be special. Y'all are all dolls about playing along with anything I throw at you and I want to make sure you all know how spectacular I think y'all are. Now the next thing I think that needs to be done is to coordinate with everybody attending as to what you will be wearing. I for one do not want to show up in the same dress and have you look better in it than me! Pam asked if she could dress her mannequin instead and I thought that idea was Fab U Lous! If y'all are game, here is a little proposition I'd like to make. If you do dress your mannequin or dress form up in formal attire and post about it(with a link back to me of course) then I'll put your name in the champagne bucket again. What would really be fun would be for everyone to do it on the same day....say party day! What do y'all think about that? Are you game? Leave me a comment with your input and thoughts. Now if you prefer to sparkle as yourself, why that would be great as well. I still want photos. I just happen to think my girls would look better strapless than me. Way too much Flying Nun going on under the arms if you catch my drift. Besides, I don't think there is enough masking tape in the world to achieve what I would want to achieve. Now speaking of my girls, I just have to decide which one I'm going to let represent me.
There is my Victoria Secret Angel who looks good in everything. This chick has curves I never had even in my best of days. She can wear a potato sack and turn any man into a masher!
Who am I kidding? Even with the lights turned off, no one would believe it was me. But it is my party and I can have any body, I mean be anybody I want to!
Now there is this little beauty who has very little to hold up a strapless sheath. Too boyish, don't you think? I mean really, even her torpedo bra is sliding south and needs to be stapled on. No, that's just not me. I like men who like women with a little more meat on the bone. You know, some junk in the trunk.
Ah, the good old days! This would have been me prior to babies, surgeries, life, marriage and a love of my own cooking.
This is my favorite and I think we are finally getting close to the real me. FiFi and I have been together a long time. She was the first dress form I bought and she is my oldest. Only problem here is the smooshed bosom. Not much decollete' going on there. BTW, that is one of my favorite words. I just love the way it rolls off the tongue. Ooh la la! But once again I digress. She is a little older and I just don't know how long she'd be able to party.
Which brings us to my last girl. Cat Daddy bought her a couple of months ago. I think he was looking for a replacement for me that didn't talk back. Would you look at the shape on her. I honestly do not know if I have any foundation garments( just listen to how nice and ladylike I can talk) that would fit her and I think she may just be a little too long in the tooth to go au natural. I could be wrong and it wouldn't be the first time, but I think gravity is really working on her.
Well, y'all think about my little proposition and tell me what you think. Remember, a comment gets your name in the bucket again! I am not above bribery to get y'all to talk to me. I really want to hear your ideas. Heck, in fact, I think I'm going to go right now and put Pam's name in the bucket for her idea and for letting me steal, I mean borrow it. Oh, and wait until you see Helen's dress. All I will tell you is it's pale blue and a dream!
P.S. Before any more time passes, I also want to say thank you to Jena at Not So Shabby for giving me the Lemonade Award. Y'all know this means so much to me and I want her to know that I think she does too for thinking of me in such a nice way. Go check her out. Her blog is beautiful and she has wonderful fresh ideas. Thank you Jena so much.

Anda One Anda Two

This is my 93rd post. Time flies when you're having fun and believe me when I say I have been having a ball! I'm planning a party for my 100th post and I am aiming for Valentine's Day. I want to tie it into my Mother's birthday as well. Helen Louise was and always will be my first sweetheart. Mother was born on February 19 and since she loved a good party, I'm throwing it in her honor.(BTW, does anyone know why we say throwing a party? Just exactly where are we throwing it to?) Mother also loved giving and receiving gifts, so I'll be planning a giveaway as well. I'll be doing posts on my party as we go along towards to the big 100, but you can expect your invitation around the 7th of February. In the meantime, be thinking about your attire (I'm thinking formal) and who your escort will be. Mother would have liked either Elvis, Tom Jones or John Travolta to have escorted her, but I'm thinking Sam Elliot, Johnny(don't even ask which one), Jay Bush or James Garner. We don't have to tell Cat Daddy, he already knows if one of the above show up and asks me to run away with him, I'm history!!! Don't you go feeling sorry for him....he has his own list. So get ready to make plans to attend. Oh and before I forget, as you post a comment on this and all future party posts, your name will be put in the champagne bucket for the giveaway!!! So get your dancing shoes ready, polish up your mambo and let's get ready to rumba. Cha Cha Cha!
