I have all these things I want to post about but all I can think about today is that I’M GOING ON A TRIP Y’ALL! Just me. Alone. No husband. More notably, NO KIDS! It’s my first overnight trip away from Kieran who is 3 and a half years old – in other words PAR-TAY!!! I’m going to visit my BFF and her husband and their totally delicious six month old baby who I haven’t yet had the chance to nom on in person. To say I’m excited would be the understatement of the year!
I’m not sure I remember how to just sit on a plane and entertain only myself. I only have to take MYSELF to the bathroom! I only have to keep track of MY OWN bags! I only have to talk to and think about and worry about MYSELF for 2 blissful flights! I’m going to have to remind myself not to lean over and change the tv channels or offer snacks or wipe the faces of my fellow passengers. Maybe I’ll be lucky and have a row to myself.
If you happen to be flying in Western Canada tonight and you hear someone giggling madly or sighing ecstatically, it might just be me.

When I took my trip last weekend, I checked 1 bag (if only I had not packed shampoo, I could have carried EVERYTHING on) and had my purse to carry on. That’s it. No strollers, diaper bags, playpens or car seats. I drank coffee. On a plane. By myself. It was good. Enjoy!

Oh, I hope you’re enjoying yourself! I need to find a friend to go visit – sounds like HEAVEN.
