Heading Out

In about 40 minutes or so I'm leaving the office and heading for my roommate's office. I'll pick her up at work, we'll head home to do the last minute packing, and my brother T. will pick us up mid-afternoon to take us to the airport. Our flight leaves right around 5:00!

I've managed to scheduled a post a day to go live while I'm gone. Some fun quiz results. Links to various articles that have challenged me, or fascinated me, and a few other bits and pieces.

I'm hoping to be able to stop in and post "live and in person" from time to time while we're away, but as I said last night, I'm not certain what the internet access will be like.

So, we're off! And we're excited!

I am praying for a trip full of laughter, hugs, fun discoveries, and rest.

The Ninth

I had to laugh this morning when I got to the office.

It suddenly hit me that today is the ninth of October.

A dear friend of mine loves the number nine, and is always looking forward to the days with nines in them.

I booked my flights over a month ago. I've been thinking about and anticipating this day for a while.

And yet, it didn't hit me until I turned over the page on my quotes calendar this morning, that this long awaited day, this day when the vacation I've much anticipated and needed, is the ninth!

And that made me chuckle indeed.
