			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Living in a big city means lots of buildings and lots of windows. OK I know I&#8217;m stating the obvious here. But seriously, lots of windows is a great thing for anyone who has to check themselves out every now and then.</p>
<p>Come on, you know what I&#8217;m talking about!</p>
<p>I see all those people walking to work taking a side glance, pretending to look inside and see what&#8217;s going on, when they really want to make sure they look good.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve all done it. And I have to say it&#8217;s genius!</p>
<p>(It&#8217;s even better if you&#8217;re wearing sunglasses because no one can really tell you&#8217;re looking at your own reflection off that shiny piece of glass).</p>
<p>The other thing you&#8217;ll find in big city&#8217;s are lots of elevators. Every tall building has them, but you can take the stairs if you can survive the 30 flights it takes to get to your apartment.</p>
<p>In any case, it occurred to me today that all elevators should have mirrors. Why you ask?</p>
<p>Well I was off to pick up my husband from work and as I walking over, toddler in tow, the wind came out of nowhere.</p>
<p>I started to panic. My outfit was a mess and my scarf was all tussled. How would I know if I looked presentable to the corporate world or if I just looked like another bum off the street? I needed a mirror STAT!</p>
<p>It then occurred to me, had their been a mirror in the elevator on the way up to my husband&#8217;s office, I could have drastically reduced my stress level.</p>
