I got to the airport at the same time as the US Ski team and it was borderline insanity. I'll be the first to admit that I would be cranky if I had to work at 4:30 AM, but panic set in when the ticket agent said "I don't think you can check 3 bags". She didn't seem to care that my 3rd piece of luggage was a trunk full of backpacks and supplies for PDK and needy children...
What are you feeling insensitive or blind to today? Will you come across as insenstive the next time you encounter someone who speaks words about orphans, needy children or those less fortunate?
...the next time I post, I will be on the other side of the world! My daughter gave me a great suggestion - alternate writing with a video blog - great idea. While I'm on the subject of Mara, I am attaching a picture of the 2 of us taken on my last eve in Reno. I had the good fortune of helping Mara/Aron pick out and decorate their first Xmas tree as a married couple. More memories to cherish...
Did the 3rd bag go with you?--Or should I say-were you able to take the suitcase full of goodies for the kids?I'm assuming , yes, as you began to quickly wax philosophical--that's always a good sign. Arrive safely in your new home, Wen.
