The biggest prize at any of these competitions is $5,000. Some of these people are spending $2,000-$3,000 per dress, and the kids wear at least four different outfits per pageant. The people spending the least money are paying a few hundred dollars per dress by buying them used from the people who pay a few thousand.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Ooooh.
Why are they spray-tanning a child whose natural skin tone is darker than the shade that most of the kids are tanning to?

I have karated, babysat the dojo baby for a couple of hours, done dishes, moved laundry around, and sent the boy off to his father's. Can I be done for the day?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
About an hour and 2 minutes ago, I set my kitchen timer for an hour, and forced myself to clean for the WHOLE HOUR.
Whew. Glad that's over, even if I didn't finish the apartment.

That's craziness! I had a lazy yet active day. Went for a long walk followed by an early supper and nap. It's been nice.
Seeing as I have a relatively clean kitchen and tomorrow is 3/14, I think I may start a pie crust tonight in order to make a pie tomorrow. But do I want to make a blueberry pie or a key lime pie?

I KNOW.
Plus, I just put on outside pants, and now I am going to go buy allergy meds and then go for a walk. It will probably only be a short walk, but that's better than nothing, I think.
eta: Key lime!

Now I might have to put on outside pants to find some key lime pie. NOM!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We did errands all day. We had to go to OSH, Costco, the bookstore and Smart & Final to get through an eight item list.
