This
is a writing/travel day
So I wake up
with the hubby at
8am. I lay out his clothes and make him breakfast (makes him feel
cared for). I shoo him off around 9:30 (his 'official' start is
8), telling to 'sell, sell, sell' and to give the clients some razzle
dazzle.
I check email
and my blogs for a half hour. I shower and change for another half
hour. I check email and blogs again for another half hour (I have
around 9 blogs). I write for about 3 hours with a couple wanders
around the house (checking for mail which I collect and open once
a week, looking at the pantry, trying to figure out dinner). The
hubby calls, tells me he's coming home early (4pm) so we'll have
plenty of time before our 8pm flight to Vegas. I panic 'cause that
means he'll be home at 5pm. I eat that chocolate I said I wouldn't
eat. I lug the suitcases downstairs. I call his dad to ensure he's
picking us up (5:30). I find the camera the hubby set out to charge
and forgot to repack. The hubby calls at 4pm to tell me he's running
late. I make him a sandwich to eat in the car. His dad gets to the
house before he does. The hubby swaggers in, unconcerned. I go ballistic,telling
him we have to hurry, my voice getting high and reedy. He assures
me we have 'plenty of time.' He eats in the car as we rush to the
airport.
We run to the check in. We get the priority line because
we're late. We run to security (why I travel in running shoes).
Security gives us a rough time because I look nervous (wonder why?).
We run to the gate, I trip over my carryon, hurt my knee, tell the
hubby I'm okay. He says "You're a trooper. Shake it off."
And takes my carryon. We finally get
there (farthest gate, of course). Everyone is still in
their seats. Flight delay. The hubby says smugly "Told you
we had plenty of time."
