Having enough.

In the month since I graduated, it's been a whirlwind of activity, including a trip to California to see family, and now we're making an offer on a house...a fixer-upper on the East side. Yikes. 

I long to update with pictures and reflections and the exciting plans we have involving my career and travel. Agapito procured free vouchers for the family to travel anywhere in the world! Because the girls have never been anywhere (other than Lucero visiting family in Mexico), and because Agapito has never been farther than Costa Rica, we've decided to France and Spain. And my sister is coming! And we'll visit one of my besties, Jane, in London! And I'm trying to convince Agapito we should go to Amsterdam and Edinburgh! And we're going search for Agapito's Basque roots! With what money will we do all of this, you ask? One thing at a time, one thing at a time.

But now I am off to read my brilliant friend's dissertation.

For now, I leave you with this: Why Women Still Can't Have It All.


p.s. Last night I dreamt that I needed to start incorporating the Gibson Girl hairstyle into my repertoire. Which reminds me, I love this hair blog, She Lets Her Hair Down, especially 1960's French Twist tutorial!

You updated! And Spain and France + more = sounds perfect!! I'm glad your sister can go, too.

I'm excited to read that article. Because I believe that, that women can't have it all.

Jane- I've totally been making plans involving you without informing you! My fantasy is for you to meet us in Paris, then we go back to London, and then we swing up to Edinburgh!

Nikki-Agreed!
