Voting and second hand kids clothes
Yes, I voted. And that's all I'm going to say except that I am studiously avoiding all the talking heads disecting the results. I'm perfectly content to find out the final tally tomorrow and ponder the meaning of it without someone else doing a pisspoor job of analysis for me.

More important and interesting business -- I went to a kids' second hand clothing sjop yesterday and I now understand how people afford to dress children without going only to lower end stores. The you-have-got-to-be-kidding 35 dollar gapkids sweater for a 3 month old becomes 8 bucks. The 50 dollar blanket sleeper from god knows where becomes 16. The newborn onesie for 16 bucks at the gap becomes 4.50.

I think I've got my girl covered for not-very-exciting but really warm footie plush one pieces in non pastel colors for this winter. Its the little things.
