BadAndee's Journal, 10 August 2008

Wow Andee, what a journal. Such great deeds truely deserve massive appreciation and I am risen in applause to all your endeavour which was rewarded as you say by 'EVERYTHING' turning out beautifully. It also sounds as if your success's on the night were varied and profound on many different levels.. so Bravo to you.  

Don't focus on that one incident. It's unfortunate she caught you off guard and caused such an intense moment. Not everyone witnessed it as you had 300 people there enjoying you and your husband's wonderful efforts! The few that did will forget about it. You pulled off a 300 person party in your HOME! You had your largest sale of the month this weekend and have your own successful business. DO NOT let her take anything away from this weekend, you won this battle, not her. Now, post a picture of how great you looked so we can ooooh and awe. 

Don't let one incident detract from your otherwise flawless evening. You were the hostess with the mostess and you ruled the party. You may have had an intense reaction at the time but it is doubtful that the others shared the same feelings. They have all probably long forgotten about it (ok, maybe not Rhonda) so you don't have anything to be ashamed of. We have all had moments like that in our lives where we wished we had done things differently, wished we could go back and change history. But wishing will not make it so. Move on, what's done is done. It's minor in the grander scheme of things. Remember the highlights of your wonderful party and count your many blessings.  

I second what everyone's already said. Dude, I am IMPRESSED at the sound of this party---didn't realize you were working on such a great deal last week!!!! (No wonder we didn't see you around here much!:)) So, wow! What a gi-normous feat in accomplishing such a party, looking Hawt, having a mega-sale, AND being the ultimate, witty, gorgeous, and well-accomplished hostess!! Poor Rhonda must have been DOA (dead on arrival!!)..."You had her at hello!" ;) No wonder she felt COMPELLED to TOUCH you!! :) Sorry to hear she pushed one hot button---but no major damage happened, so let it go. Also, you couldn't have known you'd feel such a visceral reaction to her, and we can't be responsible for how we FEEL. No beating down on yourself!!! Congratulate yourself on this party-of-the-year, and all other million things that are great about you---and FORGET Rhonda! Hopefully you won't see her again for a long, long, long time!!! Now, enjoy the rest of the beautiful week ahead!  

All I can say is WOW!! Congrats on the tree sale and pulling off such a grand party!! I wish I could have been there! As for Rhonda, under the circumstances, you did FINE!! It's over now so take a deep breath and let it go! She's not worth another thought! I'm waiting for your arrival at Lake Erie!! (((hugs)))  

WOW BadAndee congratulations on hosting such a successful, beautiful party. I'm very proud of you and the way you handled Rhonda! I'm glad that you had such a GREAT party. 

I agree with all the above - you have so much to be proud of! Fabulous party, HUGE sale, rockin' good looks :) - that other little ol' thing was just a tiny blip on the radar, in the grand scheme of things. Deep breaths, and release those bad feelings to the universe. ((((((((((((((((BadAndee))))))))))))))) 

I also would like to add my support, however 08 has already read my mind and my opinions would only be a duplicate of hers! well said 08! I've been following your saga for a little while, wouldn't it be funny if she acted like that not because she wanted your husband, but that might like you? Just an inconsequential thought. Congratulations on your paramount achievements this weekend!!
