Lovely to find you again wearing a green gingham thing on DYMT. Send it down to me so I can wear it after my belly surgery. I was feeling quite confident about it all till I read about how awful you felt after your choly. And forgetting how ghastly I felt after I had my gall bladder out (1996), and this one will prob be worse cos all the surgeons talk about is the scar tissue which will be in the way from then... Urk. And I was expecting to be back boogying and partying by the beginning of December...<br /> Hugs and love, Jasmine<br /><br /> November 10, 2011 9:09 PMBanaghaisgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17239833799152483912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156196178932753360.post-38954103516698408612011-10-18T20:46:21.444+11:002011-10-18T20:46:21.444+11:00Beautiful, stunning dress!Beautiful, stunning dress!Allysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02468242530050588202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156196178932753360.post-88461490303319445112011-10-15T19:27:41.111+11:002011-10-15T19:27:41.111+11:00I love it!!!
