So this post isn't necessarily about Elli, just about life. I was supposed to be leading a conference in El Paso Texas on Tuesday. One conference was at 8:00am and the other at 12:00pm. The conference was for around 60 K-5 teachers on differentiation (literacy centers, technology in the classroom etc.) Well, my flight from New Bern to Atlanta had to make a pit stop in Columbia SC making me miss my connection in Atlanta to El Paso. When I finally talked to a service rep they said I wouldn't make it to El Paso until 1:00 pm on Tuesday, causing me to miss both conferences. Therefore I basically spent the night in Atlanta with no luggage and was put on standby to come home on Tuesday morning. Luckily I made it, although I can't say the same for my luggage yet. You know, these things happen and maybe it was to teach me a lesson. Maybe I was too excited about the extra money or maybe I just needed the practice flying (I'm a horrible flyer). Either way, at least I am safe at home and get to see Elli one day earlier!
The other up side is that I can start my Extreme Home Makeover one day earlier. A lot of rearranging is about to happen in our house to make room for Littlest Waller. I am doing a lot of research on Pinterest.com to get ideas on how to make a small space do-able. I will chronicle it all as it takes place - I am bracing myself for a messy house for a few weeks.
Ooh super excited to see how you redo things! Looking forward to those posts!!
ReplyDeleteAnnnnnddd... sometimes you just need a post to share the 'blahs' of life :) There was a reason you're not there. And, like you said, you're home to see Miss Elli a day earlier!
