Leaving for the UK

Tuesday, May 26, 2009

Well, here I am drinking a Starbucks latte at the Sacramento airport while waiting for the flight. Thom has just dropped me off and we laugh as we discover that he has stopped for his own Starbucks on the way home. I was just here picking him up from his flight and now a bit over 24 hours later, the adventure begins again. There is regret at having such brief moments together, for rushing around completing last minute packing, and getting the house ready for the housesitter. I wish that it could have been more relaxed and carefree. A lesson that I will continue to learn.....how not to overpack and fret about everything I didn't do.

I will miss my garden and am an insane person for rushing around at the last moment planting zinnias, tomatoes, basil, lobelia, and alyssym.
Maybe beautiful flowers will greet me home.


There is also a sense of anticipation and surprise that I am leaving the country for 2 months. What will this be like, away from each other for 60 days. We were just apart for 45 days. Hmmmm. I feel like planning an exotic trip somewhere to be together again.

I miss you, Thom, already. Find out how to post so I can hear from you.
