I was one of those moms that said I would never put my daughter in Crocs. And then they came out with these, the first-ever Crocs kids' sneakers-yes, just in time for back to school.

My daughter's daycare is closed this week and my routine has been shot. Instead of heading downtown to take her to school and go to work, I have to go uptown to drop her off with her aunt, then back downtown to get to work. The past two days were a mad dash for the door and into a taxi, but today we actually got out of the house in time to take the train (a whopping $10 savings!).

So what changed? Last night, I got strategic and made a list of the things that had been slowing us down and what I could do to prevent them from happening again. And it worked. So if your morning routine getting to work is filled with chaos and confusion, perhaps these timesavers will help you like they helped me.

Yes, this is exactly what you think it is. According to a recent study, pee sticks are one of the top 3 pregnancy keepsake items. Huh?

Call me a germaphobe, but I threw my positive pregnancy test in the trash a few minutes after I got the results. I was excited to be having a baby, but I did not want the stick I just urinated on sitting on my dresser or in my jewelry box.

But apparently there are lots of moms who actually do keep their pregnancy tests. I get the sentimental value-it's thrilling to find out you're pregnant. And maybe if I had a cool keepsake bag like the one e.p.t. is coming out with I would have kept mine. But I didn't and I'm still not sure I'd want to hold onto something I just peed on.

To celebrate, maybe buying yourself a pretty dress or pair of shoes at a sample sale is a better idea.

What about you? Did you keep your positive pregnancy test? Do you think e.p.t.'s new keepsake case is gross or a really good idea?

Sadly, the e.p.t. keepsake
