Travel...the necessary evil of business.
It has been (and continues to be) a traveling experience for me in my new life and times. Many would say that traveling the world is fun (and it is), but sometimes traveling is a little bothersome.
Therefore, if you must travel (long term or short jaunts), make the most of your trip. Remember...
1) Use your time wisely
2) Pack appropriately...less is best
3) Don't forget to enjoy the trip and people you meet
4) Look around, you may see someone you know
5) Make NEW friends along the way

Monday's Musing
As I sit working on the holiday, I find myself wondering WHY do we enjoy them?
Well, normally it's just sitting around and enjoying the time off and with family. However, that is not the case right now. In my new life and times, I find myself "working" during this holiday. We have a DV coming to my location and I need to meet him and ensure he is situated. While I wish I could just "relax", I find myself in the waiting game...
Remember, holidays are a time to relax and enjoy...not work.

Word 4 the Weekend
Uncertainty
Why would I chose such a word as "uncertainty"? Well, it's based on what is going on in my life. When sometimes you think you have everything under control, then...BAM...nothing is going like you want or thought.
However, it is times like this that make me appreciate what HAS been good in my life. I have found that I can anchor my life on the things that have already happened. As I speak to Airmen these days, I find myself referring to being "blessed beyond measure". How do I say...it's amazing.
I can't seem to understand how blessed I am. Too many times we find ourselves looking forward and forgetting about the past. Why is that? Are we always searching for the next thrill or adventure or do we just forget about the great successes of the past. I think about the job I currently have...WOW what a blessing. I couldn't have asked for more.
But even during this time of prosperity, I find myself thinking about the upcoming uncertainty of lil' Blue going to college and Mrs. Blue coming to Florida. Also, what about that house we can't seem to sell? So much to be thankful for, but so much to be concerned about.
However, I still have the faith...
