**I Am Ready* Edited**

EDITED BIT: Someone at Continental called me last night and changed my flight from 6:45 to 1:15 pm. Apparently yesterdays’s 6:45 flight was cancelled because of "bad weather ‘ {I am thinking thunderstorms} and they fear the same may happen today. I don’t mind one bit because I was going to feel a bit rushed getting my connection from the later flight and now I have plenty of time. I quite like airports and since I have a book and my music, I will have no problem passing the time pleasantly.

The next entry should be from England…

I am all packed. I have the suit case that will go all the way through to Bristol, UK, and the carry-on shoulder bag that will go under the seat. It is pretty heavy since it contains my camera, three paperbacks I got at 25 cents each from the library, my drawing book and pencils and pens, my red wallet with American money and credit cars, a black wallet with English pounds, my travel journal, my medication and my passport and "green" card."

Tomorrow I have two more errands. I need to go to the grocery store and get instant grits for my brother-in-law. When I lived in Mississippi and they came to visit me, he really liked this horrid stuff and I have taken it upon myself to keep him supplied. I also am going to get a chocolate-scented candle for my sister from Yankee Candles. I have brought her one every year I have come to visit her and I really want her to have one this year, too.

At 6:45pm I will be on a plane to Newark and from there to Bristol in the UK. I get there at 8:55 am local time which means it will be 3:55 am for me! I should be able to update from England eventually…

Until later…

Honey, you have the best time while there. You and your sister kick up your heels and do whatever comes to mind. Be spontaneous and just have FUN. You still have a green card? Ever think about making it legal and becoming a YANK? You would be a fantastic attribute to add to the Yanks. Hugs, well wishes and be good. I know I just told you to have a good time, okay, Have a good time. lol

I hope that you have a safe flight.

Of all the foods I’ve tried on my visits to Liz, grits are the only thing I’ve not liked. How anyone can eat that stuff is just beyond me. lol

Oh wow, the time is finally here! Travel safe and I can’t wait to hear about your journey when you return! Be well,

Add grits to the list of foods I have never tasted and probably never will. Have a safe journey, Patricia! BTW – just to set the record straight – I was wrong about Connor liking coconut ice cream. It is Marsha Marsha Marshmallow he likes. I bought some yesterday.

Cool hearing from you all the way over in Jolly Olde! I still have some anise left….wonder if I could chop it up and freeze it for later use?

RYN: How very, very true. I am only glad that I can learn this lesson now, when I’m so young, and it has the opportunity to shape my whole life. Thank you for your note.

Have a jolly good time on your trip. I loved England, although I didn’t get to see as much of it as I would have like to have seen. It is a beautiful place, and I would love to visit again. Keep us posted, and I hope you have a wonderful time. Love,
