Leaving on a Jet Plane

In 3 hours I'll be on my way to Mitchell International Airport in Milwaukee to catch a flight to Florida. The family is very excited to go and see the grandparents, but I can't help wishing I was boarding a flight to somewhere like Maine, Cape Cod, or any other New England destination.

For the flight, I have a bag loaded with doodads to keep the kids happy - suckers, activity books, multicolor click pens, mini etchasketchs (sp?). For me, I have my Earplanes (ear inserts so my ears don't pop closed) and a new book I'm very excited about titled Made From Scratch - Discovering the Pleasures of a Handmade Life by Jenn Woginrich. We'll see if I'm able to even get through the preface on the plane!

Hope you have a warm and wonderful time! I've heard that chewing gum or eating lifesavers can help with the ear thing, too. I look forward to your return, and more writing on your blog. I've missed your voice.
