HOLIDAY UPDATE -- FROM THE AIRPORT
So, it's 3:15 P.M. on New Year's Eve day and I'm blogging from a very snowy airport terminal in Hartford, Connecticut. The GF and I are on our way back to Indy after spending four days with my family, and five with hers. All-in-all, it was a most excellent vacation. I got to see my Mother and Brother and big and little cousins, while the GF got to see her family, which includes many sisters and a ton of cute and personable little nieces and nephews (including a new one she had yet to hold).
Right now, we're both feeling like we need a vacation from our vacation, which we'll get tomorrow--Sunday--and Monday, when she has the day off from work. Over the next few days and weeks I hope to post about:
- Recap of the last year;
- Goals for the upcoming year and beyond;
- Reflections on seeing my Mom and my Brother;
- Thoughts related to a recent visit to my Father's grave;
- A review of Len Lewis' new book, "The Trader Joe's Adventure" and
- Commentary on just about everything else, including stuff I know nothing about.
Till then... here's wishing everyone a Happy and Safe New Year's Eve, as well as a Safe and Prosperous 2006.
Update to the Update: 7:45 P.M.
Blogging now from a cozy rocking chair in the expansive main terminal/shopping mall that is Charlotte International Airport... smooth sailing thus far. Hartford's snow is Charlotte's warmth. We're one hour into a three-hour layover. Large white rocking chairs dot the main terminal, as do people sporting tans and shorts. As much as I like snow, I'm consistently being reminded of the fact that 2006's May is just five months away!
