Where in the world would you like to be right now?
ReplyDelete"You are not here" ~ ha!
ReplyDeleteWell done and what a dramatic globe.
(diggin' Heather's quote, too)
You're not here, but there...
ReplyDeleteI'm neither here nor there...
ReplyDeletefunny, that's about where i'm headed. but i am not there yet.
ReplyDeletelove the definitions, bethany!
thxs ladies & great quote heather! <3
ReplyDelete@Amy, great question... took a little thought but i think, right now, i'd love to live in London again. perhaps that's why the "you are not here" fell on the globe where it did... although i did price a plane ticket to Shanghai the other day. ;) you?
according to Jon Kabat-Zinn, "wherever you go... there you are" So... with Pageviews by Countries, I'm in Spain, Germany, Croatia, Canada, Netherlands, United Kingdom, & the United States. again Thxs. (I think it's time to get my passport out & dusted off!)
I love that you are a traveler especially since I'm not. How much was the ticket? I haven't priced one yet, but I love that you have.
ReplyDeletethe ticket is an arm & a leg Amy! ...but... i've been brainstorming. how do you feel about bake sales? donation buttons? snow globe auctions? benefit concerts? You know what they say, "where there is a will, there is airfare!" (or something like that!)
