Leaving on a jet plane

Alexandra Petra Stewart

Today I'm going to travel from the West Coast to the East Coast to meet this gorgeous young lady, Lexie, born June 18, 2010 to my niece Allison. My sister Norma Jean and BIL Pete (the grandparents) are already there; it's at least their second time to meet her.

I'll be taking my laptop and hopefully I'll be able to put up a post or two during my trip, but I'm not sure whether things will work as advertised, ya know.

In any event, I'll be back home on Monday, August 30, and if you don't see me visiting your sites and leaving my usual comments, that's why.

Fortunately for the birds, Smart Guy is taking over their care and feeding while I'm gone. It's interesting to realize how much of a job it is. I don't want any little fledglings to miss their breakfast just because I'm elsewhere!

For those of you who follow Jan Mader (Ignite to Write), she's home from the hospital after her surgery. I'm also holding Robynn in my thoughts as she goes under the knife. She promises to share all the gory details on her blog in the future. Until later...
