And the post about moving to Barcelona is as though someone far superior with the pen was telling the tale of my moving to Milano. No job, no idea what I am to do, changed values and priorities....all of it.

This is way too deep an issue to get into in a comment I realize, and I don't want people to think there aren't great loving families in St. Lucia and in fact one upside is that we really don't suffer the kind of traumas of divorce and half-sisters and half-brothers that more nuclear family oriented societies do...well, like I said, a little window in - a little window into another side of the world, in St. Lucia where I’ve lived most my life and where I identify myself with, having a child is seen so overwhelmingly as a must for women: I don’t have a child and I figure at this point I’m past that – people still ask me about having a child more than anything else that they ask me about.

You'd be surprised at how many of us there are. When I went backpacking solo a few years ago - I was on the road for three years - I kept running into other solo women everywhere, even in the most unlikely places! I've had wonderful fun and experiences on my own and I travel solo each time I can. It really helps open up the world for me.

I am much more interested in Children's wear because I see that people are paying more money to "dress up" kids. In Beverly Hills, they opened up a shop called Fashionology LA, a shop where tweens can CHOOSE what they want to wear. Even in fashion, kids are maturing too fast. In Bambini, a kids fashion magazine, the clothes look like adult clothes shrunken to kids sizes. Did you know there are thong underwear for babies? Incredulous. That is so true!
