so ...my question is ~~

WHY?
don can crawl out of bed in the morning ~ brush his teeth, run the deodorant under his armpits, slip into his jeans (the ones he had on the day before), add a t shirt , through on a hat, and... presto! he is ready to walk out the door. it only takes him, at the most 15 minutes, can you believe it, and he's ready for the day. he doesn't worry about WHAT to wear, doesn't care if his hair is not perfect, or that people can look at him and know that he just got out of bed 15 minutes ago.
i on the other hand ~ get up, crawl into the shower, shampoo my hair, shave my legs (and pits), get out. brush my teeth, through on the deodorant, lotion up, then the underwear goes on. i make the bed (a little pet peeve of mine....can't stand to get into an unmade bed at night), through the dirty clothes to the laundry. blow my hair dry, add a little product, blow hair dry again, add some more product, blow hair dry again ~ flat iron (ya gotta love the natural curly hair when you are trying to make it straight!) spray hair, pick it out, spray again, flat iron a little more, add more product. check out the back of hair to make sure it looks 'just right'. flat iron some more, add the finishing touch. i put on my make up ( granted, i don't use much), but it takes time to make it look 'just right'. i run downstairs, plug in the iron, while i wait for it to heat up, i put in a batch of laundry (usually have to empty the dryer first so i can put the clothes from the washer in). run back, iron my clothes (thank goodness for 'scrubs', they make it easier, because i don't have to decide WHAT to wear, just what color would be best for the day). , get dressed, hop upstairs to grab something to eat for breakfast on my way to work, and something for my lunch, clean up any messes left. gather my goods, and then... i'm off to work!
over an hour later!
(and i don't even have any kids to worry about!)

is it vanity ? ~ or what?

wouldn't it be great if we all looked good in a hat!?
