my husband and I are a mixed couple- he is black and I am white and we live in the deep south, right below Atlanta. We just bought a 4 bedroom, 4 bath home and gosh, darn, in the gated neighborhood where we live thought might have to really be watching out for what you are talking about. Really I think for anyone thinking entire south like this thinks probably we still don�t wear shoes either and run moonshine...

Whew (wiping my brow!)

I think it is a movie - don't sweat it.

Tell her not to sweat the small stuff...
I read recently that wearing red to a wedding is considered bad luck. News to me! (In some cultures the bride wears red!) Does she really think she can control what all the guests wear? If your dress color is such a big concern she should have told you long ago, so it sounds to me that putting you in charge of the guest book is a recent thing. Keep it pleasant, otherwise you'll be blamed for causing a problem, but tell her you'll pass on that responsibility so you can enjoy the wedding.

Bag balm and sweat socks...Nasty but very effective...
My feet get so dry they crack and bleed, summer or winter. It takes me about 3 days of sleeping in sweat socks, but it works. Also I swear by anything with shea butter in it, especially anything from Bath and Body Works rocks!!!. I also swear by Gold Bond Ultimate Soothing skin therapy lotion. It has shea butter in it too and it rocks too. There is no real smell to it so if you are allergic or sensitive, then this will work.

I wonder if we could somehow augment our MT salaries by being spokespeople for these companies. LOL.

sweat pants or loose light cotten pants - sm
sometimes put on makeup but usually just brush hair and pull it back and get to work!
