The French Babbette

So I had this to-do list with 20 items on it (see below). There is something really gratifying about crossing things off a to-do list, is there some secret hidden meaning in this gratification? Anyways I actually vaccummed my car and cleaned it out last night, and thought, hey I need to add this to the to-do list even though it's already done...haha...gold star for me! i had planned on heading for the gym but sephra was having so much fun playing in the backyard i decided to just clean out the car instead. so when i got in this morning, YEA, so nice that it was all CLEAN!
