Next weekend is the local Dancing with the Stars event. I've had one rehearsal, two weeks ago. Not really enough practice to make me look like the Star Dancer I'm suppose to be. Plus, I still haven't been certain about my dress.
I found a great black cocktail dress in Minneapolis but it was still going to need a little work... a little bling. Between meetings today I stopped in Dillards and checked the racks. I saw the one I have wanted all along. I can't believe I went all over Minneapolis in search of it and it was right here in front of me the whole time.
The dress was definitely more than I wanted to spend for a 30 second dance. But, I took a minute and thought about it.
I won. Yes, I won the event last year. I was the audience favorite. And, that was before I lost all the weight. I did it being heavy. And, here I am one year later and so much smaller. I really wanted to celebrate all of this... even if just for 30 seconds in front of everyone.
