*Though I left a day later than first planned-I am ever so grateful to be going. Im headed to the desert and to do some serious female bonding!
*The drive to Vegas was slick and quick. I had Glenn Beck and the search for Barak Obama's speech to keep me company.
*Parking in the Economy parking lot is a sweet deal. Now I just need to remember that I parked the car in the E3 section of that multi-acre lot! Remember E3.
*When did the concept of "fun" leave the traveling experience? Was it 9/11 and the security checks that materialized it the aftermath? Did it loose its glamour when I hit 40 something? Did it happen when 1000's and 1000's of people are now traveling all over the world? Is it because people no longer smile at one another-except on very rare occasions? It could be that airports are now gargantuan and, inevitably check-in is at one end of the terminal and the gate where ones boards is 3 miles in the other direction! My advice: Take the time-plenty of time, so there is no rushing involved. Also I recommend checking your bags-then the PSI agents don't have to go through them in those ghastly security lines. Plus that means you arent having to haul them behind you for that 3 mile trek that most definitely will be before us!! Wear sandals, bring warm socks in your purse.
*Stop and have a Cinnabon!! yum!!!
*Enjoy the people watching that can only be found in airports. (sidenote- San Fransisco is the bomb for this activity!) Relax, breath, and enjoy watching all the other crazies that didn't plan ahead as well as you!!
*I love to fly!! I've done my fair share of flying and Im so grateful to say that I've never had a scary experience. The only thing I dont like about flying?? They keep the dang planes' thermostat set at a numbing 50 degrees!!! There are not enough blankets on board to keep me warm. Thus the extra socks in my purse.
What's going on at Home?
*Brian is turning 17 today - But, he wont miss me. He has school during the day and more school at night for the whole week! I promised him I'd make it up to him on the weekend!
*Lucy, Lucy, Lucy puppy. Oh my goodness has she ever done a number on the backyard! What is it about the insanity of puppyhood? I do admit that the craziness is due in part to my neglect. It got cold again outdoors and because Im a certified wimp, I walked her less and she had extra energy to expend-thus the yard became her play-pen!
*Builder Bob and son Joe have big goals- 3-4 reservation agreements this week!!! You go guys!!

I'm so glad you went to AZ and had fun! Are you missing Lucy?...I wouldn't with a mess like that!!! She hasn't chewed anything to bits yet here!
Cindy, you make me laugh. You have a talent for describing a situation and you did the airport perfectly. I'll have to give in and have a Cinnabon next time - don't they smell heavenly?
