I've been traveling the past few weeks, which is why the blog has been silent. (It's on the agenda for the new year to be sure to post regularly, starting now.)
While on the plane the other day, my fiance and I overheard a father of young boys a few rows back say to his son.
"Oh, you were trying to use the Force to get your drink and it didn't work? That's okay I got it."
My fiance and I shared a giggle, and then he informed me that we're going to have awesome kids like that.

The First Step
I have a problem.
I knew it was a problem, but didn't really take issue with it until recently.
I don't know how to fix it. But I'm not sure it needs fixing.
You see, I have a fear (I guess that's how you would put it) of being bored or not having anything to do. When going somewhere I have a book and some knitting with me just in case. When it comes to traveling for an event such as a family party, I have multiple knitting projects, my little notebook, a book, and my Kindle. Enough stuff to keep a normal person entertained for weeks on end.
The problem? Well, I rarely use this stuff.
But if I don't have it with me, I get all antsy. Then there usually ends up a period of time where I really wish I had it with me because I could be knitting while we drive the half hour to the store.
So, while I don't plan on doing anything about this. I did realize I'm a little out of hand when last night, after confirming a last minute flight back home to Utah, I downloaded 5, yes 5, new books onto my Kindle.
But I have decided to leave the computer at home this trip. Maybe that's why I needed 5 new books. On top of the half dozen or so from previous trips that I still haven't read....
