title pic Eleven more days

Posted by Alli on February 11, 2008

In eleven days I am going to be getting on a plane and heading to Orlando for a hookup with my girl, Courtney. She is riding in the Tour de Cure on the 24th and I get to cheer her on. As a bonus we will be going to Disney World on the 23rd. Because apparently Courtney is able to ride a bicycle for 22 miles after a long day of walking and standing in lines. I’m thinking, when her blood sugar isn’t too low, she runs on pure energy. I’m glad I will just be the gal on the roadside with a camera in hand.

When Courtney asked if I would fly down and hang out with her for the weekend, I wanted to say yes right away. But good old Mommy Guilt snuck in and made me think about it hard. Leaving Fuller with Damon for several days bothered me because I am the stay at home mom, asking to not stay home. And I just got back from “Alli time” in Vegas back in November. And the actual travel part of it was tricky. The airline I will be flying only flies certain dates, therefore I will be gone a little longer than I like.

So like good couples, we talked it out. Then Damon put me at ease telling me to “go for it.” And ten seconds later I whipped out the credit card and bought the plane ticket.

And now that our family is back from our little jaunt, I have to say, I am getting excited. Eleven more days!
