My Ebenezer

My bags are packed (almost) and my reservations are made. I’ll be heading out in a few hours to fly way too far away from my family for work. Yes, I am actually going to do some work. I even had to buy big girl shoes for the event – something I haven’t done in I don’t know how long. I haven’t been anywhere lately where flip-flops just wouldn’t be acceptable.

This will be the first time I’ve been away from my kids for three whole nights and the first time I’ll be so far away. I’ll near Oakland, California so watch the news. If there is a major earthquake there and you never hear back from me, you know what happened. That’s pretty morbid, isn’t it? I have all kinds of irrational fears about leaving. Most of them revovle around earthquakes and never seeing my family again. Sigh. I really need to chill.

Anyway, I am finally looking forward to being away for a few days, even it is for work. I really like what I do and enjoy being with a live classroom full of people so it should be fun. And who knows, maybe I’ll even sneak away to the movies in the evening!

I expect to have internet access at hotel California so look for more posts over the next fews days as I’ll actually have time to write.

Peace Out. (i wanted that to be the last thing I wrote in case my plane crashes.)

Peace Out.
