So this is an email I got a while ago from my good friend Kristin. I have had it saved for over a year in my mailbox, so I thought I'd post it to share with all of you. (Sorry if you've already heard it.)
Amanda was walking down the street when she was accosted by a particularly bedraggled and shabby-looking homeless woman who asked Amanda for a couple of dollars for dinner. Amanda took out her billfold, extracted ten dollars...and then asked, "If I give you this money, are you going to spend it on Diet Coke instead of dinner?" "No, I had to stop drinking that years ago", the homeless woman replied. "Will you use it to go shopping instead of buying food?" Amanda asked. "No, I don't waste time shopping," the homeless woman said. "I need to spend all my time trying to stay alive." "Will you spend this on a hair stylist instead of food?" Amanda asked. "Are you NUTS!?" replied the homeless woman. "I haven't had my hair done in 20 years!""That's just fine," said Amanda, "I'm not only going to give you the money, I'm going to take you out for dinner with my hubby and myself tonight." The homeless woman was astounded. "Won't your husband be furious with you for doing that? I know I'm ragged, dirty, and I probably smell pretty disgusting." Amanda replied, "That's all right. It's important for Andy to see what a woman looks like after she's given up Diet Coke, shopping and hair appointments."
And there you have it girls! Let your hubby's read it too!

Nice Bets... you knew I'd appreciate that, right? I'm all about the Diet Coke!
so funny that i am drinking a diet coke as i'm reading this...
Hey Betsy. It depends on how many pages you have. I had 146 pages and I went with hard back. I paid 50.00 that included shipping.
My friend Sara paid 50.00 for 288 pages and she got soft back. The reason I went with hard back is because the front of her soft back was pulling apart. I hope that helps. It was so worth the money.
Betsy,
