get out

If something really important happens to you in the next few weeks, blog-friends, and I don't get over to your place to comment - don't take it personally. I'm going on a trip!

After many, MANY months of planning, we're heading to Europe this Saturday, and coming back November 3rd. We're going with a group from my church, so I'm technically the leader (though we'll have a local guide, mercifully, since my language skills are rusty at best) - and all the preparations means there's been not much time for blogging lately. And who knows what internet connectivity will be like where we are, so I may be missing for awhile.

But we're really excited, and I'll give you a full report when we get back. If you're the praying sort, send up a few for our travels: I really hate flying, and ten hours in a plane is a LONG DAMN TIME for me, but on the other hand, it's ten hours away from the phone and email and any demands on me, so that's sounding better and better.

See you in a few weeks. Ciao!

  2. I hate flying too, I'm sorry you have such a long plane trip. I usually bring plenty of things to do (crochet, books, NPR podcasts), and hopefully your plane will have individual movie screens with some decent selections to watch.

    Are you going to Italy? If so, and you want any advice/connections/translations/help, feel free to email me at sunflowerchilde at yahoo dot com.

    Have fun!

  4. Have a great trip! I'm not a big fan of flying, either, but usually a trip that long makes me so annoyed that I can't think about being scared. :)
