Leaving on a Jet Plane
I had a terrible dream last night. I kept losing my husband in a mysterious downtown urban area which involved a parking garage and at one point, a parade. My enthusiasm for flying to New York (on business!) is tempered by anxiety and misgivings. I already miss my daughter, even though she’s right over there watching television (taking a break from bugging her almost 10-year old brother). I’ll be gone on my son’s 10th birthday. I worry about how my teenagers will handle school in my absence.
And then there is work itself at the corporate office. I fret about making a good first impression, especially considering that I will leave here at midnight, arrive at 8 a.m. (which will be 5 a.m. in my home time zone) and then by 10 a.m., I will arrive at the office, ready to work. A friend will be meeting me in New York and I worry that I will no
But, I do have these cute shoes to wear. (Arg! I can’t insert a picture, for some reason.)
And the crocuses have started to bloom. (Again, I have a picture, but I can’t insert it. Technology can be so uncooperative sometimes.)
Next time you hear from me, I’ll be in New York, New York.
good luck melodee. have fun!! you’ll do awesome.
Have fun and try to relax! YOur kids will be fine and you will be impressive. You impress us here!
Have fun!! Your kids will survive (but I know the worry about the teenagers and school…I have that same worry).
I love NY! Have an awesome time!
You are fabulous, you will do fine!
Have a safe trip and a fun time with your friend!
I love to visit my grown sons in NYC – it’s exciting but I don’t want to be there alone. Let us know how those awesome shoes work for you on your trip – I’m looking for something similar for my trip to Vancouver in May (4 times zones from here) where I’ll do lots of walking!
