Pack It Up
Conversation between Tammi and one of the big-wigs at work:
BW - The nice thing is with all the changes you won't have to make that long drive every day.
Tammi - What! The whole part time telecommute thing? So early??!!
BW - No. You'll be gone. At least you'll know your way around the airport!
Tammi - Oh. Yippee.....
That's right folks. I found out yesterday life is gonna be changing a bit. For me any way. Looks like I'll be The Road Warrior once again. But this time with frequent flyer miles thrown in.
I've got some mixed emotions about this whole thing. The good news is that after these shows I'll be home weekends and THAT is important. But during the week? Yeah, I'll be going from 25% travel to around 75%. The challenge will be balancing.
I have to admit I'm kinda lazy. I am because I can be. You see - I don't have to do anything. I've got no dinner I *have* to make. If I don't feel like doing the dishes, that's fine. No one to give me any shit about it. I've got enough clothes that if a trip to the laundry mat doesn't sound like something I wanna do - I don't have to go.
I read about the Mom's out there and what they do day in and day out and remember being like that. I remember when I would get up, cook a big breakfast, go to work, come home, make dinner, clean up, do a couple loads of laundry, supervise homework, refere. At this stage in my life - I don't think I could do it. Not like that.
So anyway - the good news is it should make blogging a bit more interesting. But for the time being, it'll be slow over here most weeks. Lots of planning and analysis to get done.
Then?
Willie Nelson say's it best - On the road again.............

Posted by: oddybobo at August 29, 2006 08:41 AMI think this may be a good opportunity to review airports...staff, airlines, restaraunts, shopping...etc...
take a photos everytime you land
I think you could be on to something
I am sensing a theme here between the belfry, and the time in the sky...
perhaps if you renamed your blog, the mile high club...
lots of strange traffic, but traffic none the less

Yeah, this is MY life we're talkin' about. Yeah - on a GOOD day they don't use roads.....

One of my friends just got a promotion that includes... travel! He's looking for another job! LOL!
