Lexington photos!! Uh oh....
I thought everyone said, "What happens in Lexington, stays in Lexington." But I keep seeing more and more photos showing up on the main board as eveidence....uh oh...! We had an absolute blast. It was so much fun to meet everyone, Tooter, Amy, Monica, My Lady Heidi, Tinkerbelle, Leilani...the list is so long. I was Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz with 5 inch platform ruby red slippers:

Juicy details? Ok.... I have always been a bit shy. My hubby is the outgoing one. I actually almost backed out on wearing my costume out in public, but Sharyn encouraged me (she was a sexy police officer with 5" black platform boots)
One of the motivational speakers earlier in the day Friday told us to get out there and live our lives. She said to make it our goal to make a memory every day. She wanted to know what we have replaced all that time & brain power that we used to spend on food. Are we still obsessing over what we eat & over how much we exercise & what the scale says? Or are we replacing that time and energy on a new passion? (not allowed to be exercise)
I danced like no one was watching! I went crazy. Even when no one else wanted to dance to a certain song, Sharyn and I would go out & stupid dance just for fun. I did not come all this way just to sit on the sidelines.
After the dance was over, a bunch of us went to a gay bar & danced the night away. Midway through, a drag queen came up to me in my sexy Dorothy costume & 5 inch platform ruby red slippers & said I had been selected to enter the sexy costume "sleeze ball" contest to try & win $100. I said, "I'm in the PTA!" But then I said, "What the heck? Why not?" I got up on that stage with the drag queens, the gay guys & I was the only straight girl. I strutted my stuff (in a decent way). Then at the end I did the splits on stage when they announced my name. I won 1st runner-up & $50. It was a blast.
There is so much more. I'll fill more in later!
