    WAG Hair color deductions?

    Paramedics, nurses, doctors, ect. can check capillary refill in other ways if there is nail polish. Sometimes pulse oximeters will have a hard time picking up readings if someone has nail polish.

    At our gym, the optionals leo cost parents $170-we use them for 2 years, but are thinking about keeping it longer. We reuse warm ups for years, so many times, parents can by a used jacket that is 1/2 cost. If not, a new one is $85. Black capris on the bottom, of the gymnast's choice-most...
