Happily, my journey for today was booking my hubby for a flight to Seattle from Tucson.  We are planning a trip to Washington this summer, and Tori and I are joining my good friend in Eastern Washington.  Being a dear, Merritt declined that part of the trip and will join us in Seattle to visit long time friends from Shanghai, the Dominican Republic and from our previous lives when we lived in Poulsbo.  I am SO looking forward to this time.  I am so fortunate to have wonderful friends in so many places, an understanding and supportive husband and the means to travel!  (Plus, Tori and I get to do a bit of a road trip!)  I love my life!
