**OT--Cyndi, Well........

I was wondering if you went back to Fashion Bug and talked to the manager? Betsy

Not much was said. I told them I didn't appreciate the way my daughter was treated. You know. Kind of a "sorry" and that's it. It's their policy that the "model" choose their clothing. Obviously my child will NOT be in their "fashion show" this Saturday. She brushed off the associates' behavior. Not a word was said. I will be spending my $100 gift card only because Mark already paid for it. I told her that I'd spend a few thousand dollars in there since May and this would be the last money I spend there. Actually, I'm taking my best friend there and I'll pay for whatever she wants as well. I remain PI##ED off at the whole thing. Brittany is VERY upset about her weight and this situation didn't help at all. But, maybe like the rest of us, this situation could turn into the turning point for her. I can only hope. * Cyndi *

That would be the only good thing to come of this bad situation. If it helps your daughter in some way. I just can't believe they didn't try to make amends somehow. Especially after you told them how much money you have spent there. Betsy

I talked with my pal today and she's going in there with me tomorrow to help me spend my card. LOL She's VERY outspoken and this should be good. lol Britt's doing much better. She still wants to tone down a lot. She's very upset about her size. Well, Susie (my best friend) is a belly dancer. She's offered to teach Britt and some of her pals how to belly dance. She told them the first thing that will tone is their core....namely those bellies. The girls were THRILLED! So, it looks like we'll have a munchkin belly dance troupe at my house on Friday nights. lol At this point, I'm willing to do ANYTHING to help Britt. I remember how much it sucked to be the biggest (weight and height) in the class. I can't do anything about her height but I can help with her weight. And, after I spend this gift card, I won't return to Fashion Bug. Their loss! * Cyndi *
