Ch...Ch...Changes

Dear Abs is wearing deoderant. She started smelling a little musty. I asked her if she ever noticed any bad smells, and she told me her armpits smelled like burritos sometimes.

I went off to buy her deoderant. She has wiped mine or her sister's deoderant on the wall, carved in it, broken it, destroyed it, created art with it. I was relieved to find......roll on!

So far it's been a week and she hasn't managed to get the ball out of the container. She puts it on every morning and evening--guess she feels like she needs it--and then she walks around with her arms sticking out to give it ample time to dry. I can't imagine Abs growing up, but I guess in this way she is! Unfortunately I was hoping that the whining and trail of destruction would disappear first.

I went and got a pedicure today and got my eyebrows done. Even if I am unemployed, I need to look nice, right?

I've got a pile of books that I want to read and a pile of books that I have to read. Where to start.....

Heck, who cares. As long as you have time to write, keep a journal of all of your escapades. It'll make great reading in later years.

Burritos?! I have heard armpit smells described as a lot of things, but "burritos?" I laughed until I cried.....I wonder if it was what she said, or that she is growing up?

Don't worry, maybe in another week she'll figure out how to get the roller ball out.

Burritos?

Oh. My. God. Only Abs! :)
