goals shmoals.

What I really want to complete is a game of this with friends.

It's hard to write this without extreme heart palpitations in anticipation of playing this beloved game I played in NZ! 
 I hope I win and you can enter to win this AMAZING (IT IS SO FUUUUN AHHH!) game here !http://www.whatmommiesneed.com/
 
I interrupt this very important goal-oriented blog to focus solely on the hair journey, and more specifically, on the head scarf. This is most definitely my favorite protective/low-manipulation/I-don't-have-time-to-do-much-but-I-want-to-look-cute style. Now, if I really want to go all out on the headscarf, Ima need to update the collection. Muchas gracias (or better yet, merci) to my big big Michelle for a beautiful woven Senegalese scarf. Just the thing I need to branch out from the covered head twisted bun (first picture).  I think I've talked enough. Now browse and love :)

How I did....
  • DID NOT finish that darn gathered skirt
  • :) make a meal (i'm thinking gnocchi with vodka sauce, yumdiferous eh?), hopefully with the Granny
  • goal #1
  • :) swim across the deep end 4 times
  • :| make deadlines for my goals
  • :) hablo mas espanol con Marta, y tomo lecciones en el ...internet (I've been slacking on listening to Spanish daily and my french listening has gone down to nil)

More smiles than green! Yay! 

But wait,
THERE's MORE!!!
