We're leaving...
...off to The D.C. area tomorrow. Gee, we haven't been there in quite a while. Of course, I checked on baby panda viewing times, only to find out it's a ticketed event and the January tickets are gone. Oh well, I had a nice show this morning on the Panda Cam though. Scroll down the page to get to the Panda cam..I just had another amazing view of the baby and Mama. ;-D snort, I swear I'd never seen that Mama that active all the times I've been to the National Zoo in the past!
Leo says he will be finished with the inside of the new room by the time we get back from DC. The Carpet people are supposed to come on Tuesday ... then we will need to put up the window treatments on the 5 windows ..Par---Tay! We couldn't use the fireplace Thursday night because the grout around the slate needed to dry calmly...wow...sure missed having those flames already! I'm really happy with the slate tiles we picked out to surround the fireplace...along with the black and gray, there are swatches of yellows reds and oranges. yes there will be photos but now you are just going to have to wait until it's all done..sort of. I'm not sure I've ever picked out "decor" that has actually come together as well as this has...I've impressed myself!
So I've cleaned out my computer bag...there is a huge difference traveling by car and or plane. I can't even remember the last time *I* was on a plane...is it really as long ago as May..Charleston? anyway, I've uploaded some new songs and backup documents onto my LifeDrive, cleared out debris I don't need to carry on my back while sprinting through airports..I'll be set. Ya know it's been a few years already for me since I've sprinted through airports on a routine basis...we'll see if this trend continues. Of course, I do know of a few upcoming trips...yeah, we'll be going to San Antonio in April I think...and oh yeah...Sydney in Sept/Oct.
Yes that would be Australia....my biggest problem is trying to decide on the side trips while we are there. I keep finding myself saying things like "While we are there we ought to pop over to..name any destination." It sometimes is analogous to "While you are in LA, you might want to pop on over to Bermuda" Ok Ok..so I've always had a little problem with perspective...it's only this <---> far on the map!
Back to packing organizing figuring out what I need to do before leaving. Geesh, I haven't even been anywhere since the end of November..I'm out of practice already.
Have a good weekend all....
