defining the circles that make me whole
DebriefPosted by Alli on February 25, 2008
All I can think about right now is how exhausted I am and how early tomorrow morning is going to be. Courtney and I parted ways at the airport this morning and my aunt picked me up so I could spend the night in her home. Tomorrow morning she will kindly get up very early [...]
Scavenger Hunt, Postie StylePosted by Alli on February 23, 2008
Courtney and I connected at the airport yesterday morning, managed to get a rental car, and headed over to Downtown Orlando. We wanted to be in downtown because that is where the Izea office is. Courtney and I have both participated in paid blogging with one of Izea’s products: PayPerPost. In fact, I started doing [...]
I didn’t order a wake up callPosted by Alli on February 22, 2008
The phone rang 5 minutes after I went to bed. Wrong number. Some poor girl looking for her mom. It rang again at 11. And again at 12:15ish. And then again at 7:15. All different people (I hope), all wrong numbers. When Courtney gets here she gets to answer the phone in the middle of [...]
I’m here!Posted by Alli on February 21, 2008
Orlando is big and I have my awesome Aunt Lois to thank for driving me around today, getting me from the airport to my hotel. When I bought my tickets for the trip down here they were cheap because the airline flies to secondary airports. And in this case, Orlando Sanford is the airport of [...]
I’m off!Posted by Alli on
No ear infection, just congestion. So, in about two hours, I will be on my way to the Chattanooga airport to take off for Florida! There is not much more I can say about how excited I am for this trip. I’ll miss my family and I feel badly for leaving them when their health [...]
More travelPosted by Alli on February 19, 2008
Today will be spent list making, shopping, and general getting ready for my trip on Thursday. I had another travel nightmare last night- I couldn’t find batteries for my camera anywhere. And I had a laptop but no cords for power or anything. It really got my heart racing. My nightmare the night before was [...]
Eleven more daysPosted 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 [...]
Vacation HomePosted by Alli on February 6, 2008
This morning our family had some excitement due to tornado warnings. And after the rain died down and the wind moved on, we got ourselves packed and on the road. Right now we are visiting my in-laws in their spacious home on Lake Martin. The sun is shining (though they had the same rain and [...]
Jealous of my momPosted by Alli on January 26, 2008
I really am glad we are not traveling until sometime in February. But, I can’t help but be jealous of my mom who is currently in England. She has a friend who is currently overseeing The Kilns, the home of C.S. Lewis. Mom decided to jump on the opportunity to visit her friend for a [...]
Where in the world? Clue number 7Posted by Alli on January 8, 2008
2007 was truly a year of travel for our family. I was thrilled to be on the go and seeing lots of places, but I’m happy to be home with no travel until March. But that doesn’t mean I have sworn off travel for good. I ache to return to a lot of the places [...]
