goals

goals today:
would it be too much to ask of myself that i manage to finish this purse (loving it already)
-ended up using the k hook, i'm just used to that one right now.
to me the purse looks big though. i keep having to remind myself that i wanted to be bigger than my old one. i find small bags useful, and they compel me to travel a little lighter, but some people want some room in their purse. and trying to figure out the pocket idea, because a lot of people seem to prefer pockets/dividers, etc, in their bags.
another issue that's different from my perspective- i don't mind no pockets because i put stuff in pockets and go through them rarely. i am personally more disciplined about keeping my bag clutter-free when i know i have to reach through it for my keys. and i never designate a "key pocket" in bags with several pockets (beloved, well traveled green satchel, i'm looking at you dear) so i always dig for keys anyway.
so. that's part of the creative process there, these rationalizations/problem solvings.
the colors are excellent- there's a teal color that i like, some nice navy warm type blues and plummy purples. but all muted, as opposed to the completely wild kureyon i was eyeing yesterday- i'm going back to get it when it's a little closer to spring.

oh, the other goals?
right.
determine if a late winter/early spring carrot plant is a reasonable idea or not.
(i'm no expert gardener, but learning eagerly.)
grocery store. which would be less thrilling but as we're going to have bean taco salad for dinner tonight, i'm a little stoked.
it's the small things, people.
update pictures on the new bag to come.
