I’m all about those throws… beads, beads, and more beads could easily sum up my week. But that wasn’t the only good part for the weekly recap. It’s been a good week from all sides. I got my car back, I’m in New Orleans for one of my favorite weekends, and things at work are good….
It’s Sunday morning here in the OC (which no one who lives here actually calls it) and that means it is time for the weekly recap here at its new date (Sundays). My former Sunday morning Around Prior2Boarding post has moved to Saturday mornings. I’m looking out at a hazy February day that will hopefully burn…
The rumors of my demise are greatly exaggerated. And I did not literally get trapped under a heavy object. Although figuratively speaking, it has felt that way. The reality has been that life this last week hit the apex of “crazy busy”. I knew it would and should have planned for it – for the…
Happy Monday! What a week… I don’t know where to begin. I started off the week talking about Uber earnings (and whether they clear minimum wage now) in my own market with recent rate reductions. And then less than 48 hours later, I suddenly found myself sitting on the side of the road – a…
Greetings from home… after five trips already this year, it was nice to wake up in my own bed this morning. It was especially nice given that I woke up sick. Almost like clockwork, I get sick every year right around the last weeks of January. Usually its the result of the time zone hopping…
Ah… it feels good to be back in the saddle – or first class seat if you will. It was a five day whirlwind – seven air segments, two car rentals, three hotel rooms. And I still slept in my own bed for four nights. But that’s only a tiny bit of my weekly recap……
Welcome to the first weekly recap for Jetsetter’s Homestead for 2015. I’m both excited and nervous about a new year starting, especially as I’ve adopted the concept of “change” as my intention for 2015, in lieu of a traditional resolution. Change means many things as I look towards the next twelve months. To start, I…
2014 has come and gone – and another milestone passed with New Year’s Eve that I failed to recognize at the time – my first six months as part of the Boarding Area & Prior2Boarding family of blogs. When I set out to write again (my original travel/life blog – “Another Glass of Champagne Please” was…
I hope all my readers enjoyed some holiday downtime this week. I had a fabulous time spending Christmas at home with my family, a switch from some of my past years. I always believe that Christmas is wherever you are, but this year it was right where I needed to be. I took a bit…
I cannot believe it is three days until Christmas. Or rather, I refuse to believe it… mainly because I’m not done with my Christmas shopping (or decorating… or baking… or wrapping). I need to watch Love Actually at least 17 times in the next 72 hours and drink massive quantities of eggnog. And caroling… there…
Ah… it was WONDERFUL to be closer to home this week after the end of my three week vacation. My travel is winding down for the year but I still have a lot of catching up to do on reviews and reports, a little bit of plotting left for my end of year status qualifications, planning…
Oh what a week! When I sat down to do my weekly recap, my mind was blown at how much ground I’ve covered in real life as well as here at the site. I started off on Monday in luxurious style on Seabourn, touring the northern Bali highlands with Virtuoso Voyager that day. I wrapped…
