Robin Sayes A Page From The Diary Of A Charming Woman Dear Diary: to Mannequin Manor, I wish I could tell the world about it. And believe me it's the best wasn't it lucky I didn't settle for second best? So Dear Diary; you know all my secrets. For five weeks I have given you a daily report on my progress and to make sure I don't slip again, I am taking their continued improvement course that meets once a week, just to make sure I stay on the ball.

Good night dear diary, Linda Fleming This can be a page from of any woman the 1 life reading this column-if she wants to bequin Manor offers the you must do is want this way-all to happen to miracle -don't you? It's good I have you to tell my most intimate thoughts to. Reading over the pages I wrote just two months ago, it's hard to believe there could be such change. To be honest with you, it's hard to believe that I could ever have slipped into that awful rut, me, who was always the one who was interested in every thing, and active in so many things, all of a sudden having nothing to add to a conversation except mundane recitation of what my problems were. Ugh! Could I ever have pulled out of it if it hadn't been for that lucky chance of hearing about Mannequin Manor. Well at any rate, I did hear and I did attend that wonderful self improvement class.

It should be called personal miracle class. Think of all I've learned-skin care, not just any skin care, but skin care just for me. And makeup planned just for my individual type and I now have once again the measurements I had as a bride, after four children too. Look at all I learned about clothes. At the party the other night, I looked around at all the other women and you know I felt just a little smug and Jerry felt so proud, he looks at me that way again a look I haven't seen in years.
