Today’s Post is Elsewhere

If it weren’t so cold and rainy out, I’d probably be sitting in my driveway atop my packed duffel.

“Can we GO now? How about NOW?”

The word “eager” comes to mind.

My bag really is packed, just waiting for my toothbrush and I’m ready to hit the road. Hit the skies? Ready to leave for Hawai’i.

Ho-o-old those horses, Missy. There’s a celebration first, not to be rushed through. For the second year in a row, our whole staff is having Thanksgiving dinner together, and I feel monumentally blessed that we have the kind of staff who get along like that. Like family. Maybe some little squabbles or tiffs now and again (just like family, am I right?), but when a celebration and food come together, this crew comes together as well. For that, I am enormously grateful. For the fact that they work together so well that we CAN leave the continent for ten days, I am enormously grateful.

And I’m going to make a clumsy segue from Thanksgiving-overeating to “A Faceful of Cake,” which is the title of the guest post I wrote for the blog called “Happiness Between Tales (And Tails) by da-AL.” The post just went live yesterday, so today’s post here is sort of a scavenger-hunt clue. Now go find the REAL post. I’ll see you back here tomorrow.

      1. WoW !! That took a long time. I started reading yours. I am going on Chapter four. I love it so far. I love how you added your own spin to the study and added parts of your life to it.

        Hope you have a Safe and Wonderful Trip…

    1. I guess as close to Hawaii that I ever got was Miami Beach and that was a long long time ago…but I have always wondered what it would be like in Hawaii– I hear it is awfully expensive to live there —but it is beautiful— I just get a little worried about volcanoes though….

      1. There IS that—Kilauea is still very active (not flowing today, but fountaining 400 feet of lava last week)… It’s on the other side of the island, so it would take a major catastrophe for it to affect this side…
