Same Story – Different Flight
On the road again or shall I say in the air again- it’s been a little more than a month and I’ve been fortunate enough at work to not have to fly to any meetings. It is hard to say whether or not it gets any easier for me. I was pretty nonchalant and unbothered…

Still Afraid to Fly
Here I go again. Back on an airplane. This time I’m headed to Denver, Colorado and back again to Baltimore. It will be my first time at the Denver airport. I finally got to see the Blucifer sculpture after having read about it. It is a four hour and 20 minute flight from Baltimore and…

Fear of Flying Part II
I think this is the worst flight I’ve had since I started my new job 5 months ago. By my count, this is my 19th flight. It would have been my 20th flight but Southwest canceled my flight home from Long Island one day so I had to take a train home from New York…

Traveling Again
I’m trying to write everyday to exercise my creative muscles, but I run out of things to write about. I’ll share that today I found out I will have at least two work trips in October. I will be going to Chicago next week and to West Palm Beach, FL in about 3 weeks. Hopefully…

Write a Little Every Day Approach
I’ve been creating on this blog since July 30th, 2020. I’m trying to write a little bit everyday. I think it helps me to get my feelings out on the page, share a little bit about myself and my interests, and exercises my brain a bit. I would like for the blog to share open…

Flying Mom
I think today was the first time I’ve flown United Airlines. The majority of my work travel has been on Southwest since there is a hub at BWI, my home airport. I’ve also flown American, which I like. I like to compare the different airlines for things like newness of the aircraft, customer service and…

Fear of Flying and Doing it Anyway
It must sound crazy to say that I am afraid of flying and severely dislike it when I fly for work 3-4 times a month. How did I get myself into this situation? I knowingly took a job that required me to fly often and travel away from my family. Ugh. What was I thinking?…

Holiday Weekend Traffic
We always fight, especially the kids, about stupid stuff when in the car for long drives. Sometimes little irritants from before we left make there way to the car or simple things like debating whether to stop at fast food or to just keep driving without stopping. If we do stop, then which fast food…

Local Produce and Dirty Dishes
Mom Problems – One issue I have when I travel for work is my absence results in a destroyed house. I’m not blaming my husband or the kids. It’s just a reality that it takes at least 2 adults to keep our show running and even then we can’t keep up. It’s basically impossible to…

First Hand Experiences
I realized from listening to the top local headlines today, which were about events that occurred yesterday or are ongoing, both had some direct impact on my life. First, our longtime veterinarian was shot by his brother in some sort of domestic dispute that resulted in our poor vet being shot in the leg. I’m…
