My princess Sophie turned 3 today (although maybe not yet, as I am 3 hrs in the future). I miss her dearly. Can’t wait to see her – in about 6 weeks ;(

Sophie, I love you!!!!

so…looks like the thunderstorms in NY are messing things up.  im stuck here at the burbank airport for 2 more hours.  4 bucks for wifi to pass time.  good start to this trip!  funny thing, renee bauer from the cannery is on my flight too!  so weird.  it was nice talking to her.  caught up on what shes been up to and what i’m going to be up to.  killed an hour too!  looks like i have to cancel dinner reservations in harlem.  jennifer (joanne’s cuz) made plans for us to eat at this bbq joint near the place i’m staying at but they close at 11.  i don’t believe we’ll get there in time because of the delay.  guess i’ll be hungry when i get to nyc.  ray’s pizza stays open late, so hopefully there is one near my place.  don’t feel like eating before the flight cuz i don’t trust my stomach.  lol! plus i heard that we might be going through some major turbulence.  great stuff.  i hate flying, and now i hate it even more.  lucky me, i get to get back on a plane in about a week!

To everyone who has contact me, thanks for all the good wishes and luck.  You all have said some touching things.  It really helps with everything that is going on.  I’m in the middle of packing still.  I probably won’t finish until 3 am.  Lots to do.  Flight is at 1040am out of Burbank.  I hope to get a little sleep tonight.  At least I’ll have 5+ hrs on the plane to sleep.  Just gave the kids another goodnight kiss. I a really going to miss them.  Till tomorrow.

Well, today is my last day.  Did some final grocery shopping for the family, going to have lunch with JoAnne, going to visit my Mom and Dad, and then going to visit Trina and her kids.  Man, I’m going to miss this ‘lil’ town!  So, I’m going be packing – enough stuff for 2 months.  I’ll be back April 13-17 and June 7-11 to move the rest of the family.  Thats when all the heavy packing, trashing, etc is going to happen.  I hope the family will be fine without me here.  Luckily i bought a MBP and got them a webcam for my g5 workstation, and we’ll be web video chatting everyday.  At least i get to see the kids faces and hear their voices.

I also bought a moleskin notebook/sketchbook.  i’ll try to keep track of my experiences and ideas in there. Hopefully i can fit everything into 2 suitcases and 2 carry on baggages.   we’ll find out tonight.  thanks to gib for the ride to the airport!
