I'm feeling amazingly "cool" and wonderful here in the desert after your beautiful comments. You made my night and Angie I was so touched and happily surprised by your killer words! Totally unexpected which makes me appreciate them so much.
Natalie, you have an excellent memory and, yes, it was a houndstooth dress caper that got me caught up last autumn. It's actually fun to have a good story to go along with a dress or some item. Remember, they always say it's a "dry heat" and it is a bit more tolerable without the humidity. Still, a few days is quite enough.
LOL on the YLF clothing swap shopping I'm doing! No, I'm not doing any clothes shopping; it was just shopping for things I needed in the house. Remember, this is a fun, stress-free gathering. Thanks again everyone! You are the best!
