All The Things months absolutely have to be budgeted separately. I understand intellectually that some people shop and fix things ALL THE TIME, but am a little horrified by it for myself.

Oh, and my daughter's a toe-walker, too! Adorable but also her hamstrings are so so tight now that she actually can't walk flat-footed now without going all penguin-legged and feeling awkward and in pain. Not so good. I think it started because she loved ballet as a wee sprog and also is full of energy and a cat-person and wants to sort of float everywhere. Which I get, but also I worry.
