On The Road
Sitting here in the Philly airport with Tricia working on my scrapbook on the road while waiting for our flight to Athens, Greece and then on to Mykonos for a Cocoa Daisy Destinations event.
Here's a bit of documentation from today:
WAKING : Up at 3:30am (day #2 at that time) to catch a shuttle to the airport for our 7am flight to Philly
READING : The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks (finally finishing it - so interesting) and various magazines
WEARING : black leggings, black ballet flats, gray shirt-dress, dark gray wrap
CAPTURING : Playing with a Fujifilm Instax MINIcamera that Elsie posted about last week
WATCHING : Rented Man On A Wire via iTunes to watch on the plane or sometime this next week
CALLING : Chris to tell him I love him and to find out what settings I should change on my phone for international calling
REMEMBERING : How much I used to fear flying and feeling thankful that things have changed
Excited to be heading to a country I've never visited. Excited to be seeing old friends and making new ones. Excited to be teaching a new Scrapbook On The Road class.
Ready, set, go.
Have a fun, safe trip! I wish I could be there to take your class!

You're gonna love Greece. I spent a few weeks there in college with our Marching Band. It is beautiful, the people are absolutely friendly, and the food delicious!! I really want to go back some day and so sad that I am missing an opportunity to take a class with you in person in such a wonderful country! Have a blast. Can't wait to see how you document this trip.

Hope your travels are not too stressful! There is a great destination on the other side of it all! I'm working with some of your photo overlays and can not get them to print out of photoshop elements...don't know if there is something I'm doing wrong? I've printed stuff before but can never get these to print. If anyone else can help go to my blog...thanks!
Have a fun trip Ali!
Hi Christy - can you email me ali@aliedwards.com with more information about what is happening/what you are trying to print?

YAY!! I leave on Friday. Looking forward to meeting you and taking your workshop. I used to be afraid of flying too. I would cancel flights and choose to drive very long distances and react physically whenever I even thought about flying. I learned about Atavan and got a prescription. It allowed me to fly but I still had the underlying fear. It took years of "practice" flying before I was able to fly without it. Now I can safely say that my phobia is no longer there and I don't need the Atavan. I highly recommend it for people with a fear of flying (talk to a doctor of course - it did not affect me in any way other than to take away a lot of the fear). I also worked on relaxation technique to use and they helped too.
Thank you for the tip! I will definitely look into it.... :)
Cool Jeni - and looking forward to seeing you. Xanax was the thing that helped me get over my fears/panic/racing heart. That and lots of travel...I think the lots of travel was really helpful. I was able to see that it's a "normal" mode of transportation.

Have a wonderful trip! I just reserved the book you were reading at the library. I got it on cd so I can listen while I scrap. I get through many more books that way! Thanks for including the title! The excerpts sound so interesting! Be safe!

Enjoy! We lived in Greece when I was a kid and I still remember it fondly. Especially the feral cats in the restaurants!
