Hanging out in DC.
On my way to Donna's Inspired event in North Carolina. Looking forward to spending time with my sister and catching up with other friends from around the country.
And once again I am hanging out while dealing with flight delays. Definitely one of my most favorite things in the world. Actually, it's a small price to pay for the adventures.
I especially enjoy making travel friends as we try to anticipate the airlines, jump online to check flight status, commiserate on the delays, and eventually make it to our destinations.

Ali,
Sorry you are stuck with delays. You have a good attitude about it though! Have you read A New Earth yet? If you haven't, I think you would really like it. Also(FYI), there was a segment on mainstreaming autistic children on the Today Show this am. Hope you got to view it or can see it via the web! Have a great day! :)

DC is the most wonderful place if I say so myself. If you get stuck overnight, you have a place to stay. Cerise

Welcome to North Carolina! Concord is right by me, only about 15 minutes from my house. The weather is great right now. I'd invite you to dinner but I know you have way too much to do and your sister to visit.

You are truly an amazing person. You even find flight delays as an opportunity for joy and connection. Talk about inspiring! Safe travels, Ali.

Hi Ali - I have a question about your album from Shutterfly. What kind of paper is it printed on? I am interested in making your Everyday Life album and wondered if the finished product is printed on Cardstock or heavy paper? Thanks for your time! Yardy

All I can think is what a great travel friend you would be.
One of my favorite hanging out in an airport experiences included meeting an awesome woman who ended up showing me pictures of her house. She had converted an old church. It was the coolest thing! She even had an old confessional in her bathroom that she painted the inside of with chalkboard paint and hung chalk in, so her friends would have something to do while they were in there! Great fun!

Hope you get there safe and sound!! We are snowed in up here in Alberta, Canada - about 2 to 3 feet of snow in the last few hours and still falling. Roads are horrific, but it is so calm outside. So work from home today and enjoy the quiet.

My sister just came back from Australia. One of her stops was in the states and as she ran through the terminal and customs she met up with a guy who lives close to our home town. As hectic as airports can be, it sure is nice to find people who relate to you and who would love to keep you company! Have fun at the conference! Sounds like fun!!
