Remember This is for a Good Cause

I LOVE this episode. Thanks for watching the show. I hope you are enjoying it as much as I am!

Well, we gotta start somewhere and I was a little shocked to see that Vawn had Alex over for dinner. To me, it didn’t look like he was cooking dinner and she just came over as friends. . .he obviously invited her over. I don’t know what’s going with them but I guess Vawn is being honest.

When it comes to Vawn and Africa, I am glad Africa asked him about where they are in their relationship. She has feelings for a man who I feel can’t be committed 100 percent. It seems like he loves bachelor life right now. However, I truly feel like the whole "honesty" thing is getting old for me. You should be honest no matter what, in a relationship or not in a relationship. SO confused!

FASHION SHOW TIME!!!

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is clearly very close to my heart, and all I wanted is for this show to be amazing and to raise money. As I mentioned on the show, my sister Wendy, passed from CF and my brother, Andy, has CF and is the strongest person I know. He is now 40, which is incredible! He has as two kids and a supporting family, has published three books, has been running the Peachtree for 18 years in a row and continues to do so! He even completed a half marathon!!! He had the honor to run with the Olympic Torch in Athens, GA (Yes CF is a lung disease. . .who would have known with him doing all this running!) And he's done so much more! It's pretty incredible. He is a true inspiration to all and a hero to his little sister. I look up to him everyday of my life. He is seriously my inspiration.

On to the big show! Fitting the models and explaining what I need from Emily was exhausting enough! Emily and I just got back that morning from the Vegas trip where I go for our buying for the store. We were so tired and had SO much to get done in so little time. The models came in and I fit them so easily. It was like bam bam bam. Done! But, then Mr. Tribble comes in and he has so much to say about his outfit! OMG!!! I wanted to kill him! I felt like he was doing it all on purpose! Haha!

As you can see, I HATE speaking in public. It makes me nuts. I freak out!

Having models for hair and make up so far away from the show will never happen again. I was hoping Emily could handle it. It all worked out fine, but I was definitely more stressed because of all the B.S. going on. I wish people had a little more respect and if you are going to be in my fashion show, be there and don't make other plans. It definitely made my blood pressure rise reliving this!

Ah, and then you see Alex and her Troll friend talking about me.

LOVE how these girls continue to talk trash about me. I threw a drink at the troll??? Really?!? Haha, that is a joke! Watch the footage again and you will see I didn't throw a drink on her. They are going to trash me and talk about what I wear when she is wearing a bright Orange Pinnacle Vodka shirt that she probably got for Free.99. It's a promo shirt! My shirt was a top designer line, which they probably know nothing about. PLUS, it was SPRING so I was trying to get in the mood since the weather was not fun this year.

Then comes the fashion show. For starters, I was shocked to see them there and then extremely offended to see them making faces when I am talking about my family. Have some respect. I don't know why they were there anyway! But, I do love how Africa called her out about it when they had their fight in the bathroom.

Oh yes, of course, the fight between Alex and Africa, I cannot believe this went down at my CHARITY fashion show. Have your argument elsewhere. I heard about this fight after the fact from Africa, and I cannot believe it went down the way it did. I am seeing this for the first time and I am in shock. I would have thought Africa would have shut it down and not fed into Alex’s nonsense.
