2* and snowing, the plane left 1 1/2 hrs. late from Nashville, due to the weather in Minneapolis. How funny to be so ready to get on a plane and come home to weather that is just mean for December 16th, and most people would think it was mean anytime! But happy I was when we actually knew we were going to be able to fly home tonite! It is cold and windy and wintry and I am glad to be back home. I sat next to a new Dad, Sam is 10 weeks old and he couldn't wait until we were high enough in the sky to show me the pictures on the computer. This was his first business trip since the Sam was born, and he couldn't wait to get home, he kept apologizing, saying well of course I want to see my wife, but he couldn't contain his joy! I have been practicing being open for conversation on plane rides, and the connections I had both coming and going from Nashville were great. Open hearted, interested, good story telling and listening, it made the sometimes boring flight so full and rich and fun. I learned some things, made a connection, was present to a strange that at the end of the flight felt like a friend. And now I am in my home, the furnace is chugging along and it is getting warmer in the house, and I am settling in for the night. Glad to have gone, glad to be back home.
