Planes …
Well, Friday was the day we took our youngest to the airport to fly back to school in the frozen tundra, Maine. Now with the security systems in place, you can no longer watch the plane take off, which somehow makes a mom worry just a bit - I liked seeing the plane disappear safely into the clouds . It is reassuring . Now, I wait for the phone call that she is safely back in her “home-away-from-home” .
The traffic was awful. Naturally we did not allow enough time for Friday afternoon traffic in a large southern city and arrived at the airport 40 minutes before take-off - not good, but it all worked out. Thank goodness!
So, once again our “nest” is EMPTY. 
I miss the laughter immensely, but school starts again on Monday for me. I am looking forward to studying, writing, research - brain growth!
It is almost morning. I must get some sleep now.
Remember, “Y’all come back ya’ hear!”
