Once upon a time in Cyberland… Cyber Cinderella went to the Ball.

Finale

The room contained an oval whirlpool tub adorned with a gold faucet in the shape of a swan's neck. All the accessories to the whirlpool were golden. The walls surrounding the tub were mirrored. At the tub's entrance, were two Greek columns (floor to ceiling) that supported a graceful archway. Below, you will see that one wall supports a lady's bench. The lighting was a crystal chandelier and the flooring, pink marble.

 As we ended the night, my friend and I were waiting for the last of the guests to leave so we could undress the Princess Di mannequin. Cinderella went back to work.

This very handsome gentleman came into the room and approached me. I thought that he wanted to shake hands (a mother of six kids rarely thinks of romance). He placed his other hand on top of my hand. He said, "I wanted you to know that you were the belle of the ball tonight. Everyone was talking of how beautiful you are, but were afraid to talk to you." He kept going on & on. (My friend was giggling in the background). I was beginning to wonder if I was getting my hand back. Then, his wife came into the room, and said, "I think IT is time WE went home." My friend and I just giggled and giggled.

Well, Cyber Cinderella did get home before midnight. I had to chase my teenagers to bed. The gown turned back into ten-year-old shorts and a baseball shirt. It was like a wonderful dream ended the next day when I packed the gown and goodies back up and sent them back to their owner.
