a moment to myself

I often find that when I'm busy, or when I don't have any time to myself, I stop blogging. That is what has happened over the past few weeks - I've been busy. It's been great but I've been feeling little twinges of guilt (or maybe it's indigestion from all the eating I've been doing) for not blogging.

 

Right now, I'm in the airport lounge, checked in and settled 3 hours (!!) before my flight. Joyfully check-in was open when I arrived 4 hours (!!) before my flight (if I'd listened to the lady who called me yesterday to ask me why I hadn't reconfirmed [aside: I soooo had reconfirmed, loser airline person] I would have been here even earlier) so no sitting around on suitcases waiting for me. Instead, I'm ignoring all the other people who want to use the computer (1 of 3). They might have to wait a while as I am catching up on my blog reading. (Although some blogs are blocked because people have been using the f-word. Sigh.)

 

I arrive at my destination tomorrow afternoon local time and then to celebrate my sister's birthday we're off to the beach for waterskiing and lazing around and the like. I then have a week of guzzling the local beer before I have to head back. As I'm getting older, my holidays are getting shorter. I'm also learning how to pack well - it's a skill I tell you.
