I'm flying to Lubbock Friday morning.
It's probably been nearly ten years since I have last flown anywhere.
My husband has been with me on every flight I have ever taken. I'm
flying out of Houston, so I know it is a relatively simple process
(though we will be landing in Dallas, I believe). But still, I am a tiny
bit worried about getting to the right place at the right time.
I have never spent the night outside in a tent. Well, I
don't know, I might have stayed out in someone's back yard in a tent
when I was a kid. But my point is, I've never been on a real live "all
night in a tent in the middle of nowhere eat what you bring to cook
sleep on sleeping bag/air mattress" camping trip. I know. I've lived a
shelter life!
When I land in Lubbock, a woman I have never met will
come pick me up and take me to the camping place (unless she is actually
an axe murderer, in which case...)
Oh! And in addition to this little adventure, we had a program through the wellness program where they offered classes on learning to swim or improve your swimming. I said if they ever offered it where you could go after work, I would sign up. Me and my big mouth! They offered it right after work and I signed up! I can swim a little bit. I do really well when I know I can stop and my feet will touch the ground! :) But I do want to learn to swim better and possibly utilize my newly improved swimming skills for exercise purposes!
Yay for a new blog post and adventures and crossing things off a list and facing fears. It will feel so good to just do it. Trust me. And have a great time!
ReplyDeleteI love this and I love bucket lists!! Even though you have not met me, we know one another. This is going to be a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteWe are going to have a great time. I look forward to meeting you too. It's like pen pals of olden times finally meeting. What fun! See you tomorrow. (how cool is it to say that?)

I am just completely amazed that y'all were willing to buy a ticket, hop on a plane and jump off into the great unknown, all on a moment's whim! Scruffy hospitality is the way to go. Can't wait until tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteGood for you, Annie, on all accounts. Have a great time!....
ReplyDeleteThat's excellent! I wish you all a wonderful trip!
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats on the swimming, Annie!
