Best of Plans...

We had it all figured out. I would drive the kids up to Seattle. Hubby would fly into SeaTac from Austin. Only one glitch. His flight departed late out of Austen and he missed his connection in Dallas. So he's stuck there overnight and won't be here until sometime tomorrow. He's probably going to miss Finn's dances, too. The kid is not happy since there are only a handful of competitions a year.

Of course for me, this means one more day (and a hectic morning at least) of handling the three on my own and getting two of them ready to dance. The one good thing in all this though is we're going to have dinner at my friend and historical romance writer Elizabeth Boyle's house tomorrow night.

Anyway, I'm signing off from blogging (both writing and reading) until I get back home. Just too much going on and pages that need to be written. A good chance the contest winner won't be announced until Monday morning, too!

Hope you have a great weekend!

I'm sorry it didn't work out... hope you have a good weekend anyway!

I always wonder... it must great to have writers as friends, do you become friends when you are writers or do you usually know them from before.

Hope everything worked out for you. You sound busy as usual :) I'll have a busy two days since my daughter is coming in for more wedding plans and we have a christening to attend - my niece's 7th child!

Oh dear - isn't it annoying when flights go kaput on you? I hope the rest of your weekend is going well otherwise!

Sounds like you've got your hands full. I hope all went well. I hope, too, you had a nice dinner out.

We have been planting all weekend. Yes, it's spring! :)

I hope your hubby did make it for the dances. We have a lot of wonderful writers that live in the Pacific Northwest. I had just learned that Elizabeth lived here last week.

Hope hubby made it in okay, finally. Hugs on the missed plans. See you when you get back!
