Wagons Ho...

So last night I packed. I took every item of clothing I had in black, added a couple of other colors for skirts, and shoved them all into a suitcase along with clean underwear (the true necessity), cosmetics, my laptop (my lifeline) and a small bit of jewelry. I probably forgot something, but I hope it's minimal. The important thing is that I have my tickets, my agenda, and my credit cards/ID in case of emergency. I have a small, specific amount of cash with me and I'm going to try to stick within that amount for the trip. I have been saving all year for this trip and I have another conference next month, so I can't afford to be too spendy.

I will hit the road at 6am tomorrow am, and I have a trip to Chicago for the Harry Potter Experience exhibit on Monday, so postings to my blog may be sporadic for the next few days. For those of you who are faithful readers (which always amazes me - thank you), I will be off-schedule for the next week. But as a trade-off, I'll be having a wonderful time and I'll be topping off my creativity batteries so that I can come back to my work areas/benches with renewed commitment and a different perspective and outlook.
