Don’t forget your Cape !!!

While I love the arriving part when you see dear hearts who you haven’t seen in a long time,

I really don’t like the actual travel part of traveling.

The organizing so that you have what you need on the plane in the container with the right amount of ounces,

the security at the airport where you feel like you have done something wrong though you haven’t,

what to wear on your feet that will work from NH winter through airport security and onto FLA temps,

the take off and landings that make me nauseous (don’t forget the Dramamine!),

the claustrophobic feeling of being in an enclosed space where I can’t get out when I want to…

Okay, I am basically a whiney, neurotic mess when it comes to the traveling part!

I am really excited to be leaving for Florida tomorrow.

And I can’t wait to get there!

But I think my neurosis came through a little in my art today…

In my mind I can see my soulsister take off in her cape... and I'm just the same when it comes to traveling. I even spend vacations at home (I kinda 'hate' going on vacation and luckely I have a beloved who feels the same!) but when the endpoint/goal is something good, I can fly too... (remember me of that fact when I ever come visit you!)

I love the cape crusader, I am glad that you put your anxiety on the page. Try looking at all this time at airport and on the plane as an opportunity to meet new people, share a little of yourself. Do you bring a journal to work on the flight, that would be a great conversation starter. Or give out a rock or two to the passengers near you. I can see you doing this right now.
Have a fabulous trip.

Why do we not have flying capes already? We have planes, capes seem like the logical next thing.

Wishing you an ease-full getting there. Enjoy squishing your toes in the water and sand!
