I can’t figure out what to wear to my daughter’s concert! What will I do?
Also, I’ve given myself a series of hot flashes from trying on so many dresses!
And with all of these hot flashes, how will I do my hair tonight? I was planning to straighten it with a flat iron it for the first time in months. (Remember, I’ve been avoiding being around hot things.) And I ran out of my curly hair styling product. I’m not driving yet and it doesn’t quite seem justified to ask my husband to interrupt his deck building project to go get it when the only one who would notice a difference is me.
I think I will take a little nap. In the mean time, let’s have a little vote on the dresses. Here are pictures of the contenders.

Dress B. This one was involved in “Gee honey, that dress makes your stomach-look big-gate.” I think it’s cute and “he who should not be named” made that remark before surgery. (From 6pm.com)
Its between c and e. c shows of the new cleavage and falters the tummy and e as i love flowers and that dress is so pretty!! Have gun choosing… My only choice at the moment is which knickers and nighty i will wear today!!! I do have pretty ones….
Thanks for your votes, Helen. I still haven’t figured out the knickers situation yet. I’m supposed to wear shape wear (for example, Spanx) to provide support to my healing abdomen. I can also wear a shaping camisole. Everything I’ve tried so far has been uncomfortable. Maybe I’ll just wear my normal foundation garments but pick up some of those support pantyhose that go up past one’s waist. That would probably work.
All of this talk of knickers reminds me of when I recently learned that each of my Lupron injections costs $14,000 dollars! (One shot lasts 3 months). As they are administered to my back side, I concluded that I am going to have to wear fancier underpants to my next medical oncology appointment!
You’ll look lovely what ever you choose. I am so happy to be able to spend some time with you and the rest of the family. I know Zoey will do a beautiful job.
About the dress..I would go for the one that is the most comfortable.
Thanks, Mom. They are all comfortable.
I second the thought of “go with comfort”!
