Just in time...

Another cloud of volcanic ash hovering over northwestern Europe has closed Heathrow (again).  *So* grateful, I got out on Friday.  My life just can't afford anything unplanned right now. ;-)

Ha!  Is the universe laughing yet?  I'm well aware - more than ever, more than many, shall we say? - that everything in life is unexpected.  I just happened to escape this particular surprise.

Volcanic Ash Cloud Over Northern Europe

As much as I longed to be stranded in Paris last week for just a few more blissful days (or longer), I do have real life responsibilities, and I'm very glad to have missed this air travel catastrophe....Air Travel Chaos Spreads and Deepens Into Weekend


Can you say/spell Eyjafjallajokull (pronounced EY-ya-fyat-lah-YO-kut)?...the erupting volcano in Iceland that has caused all this mess.


Truth is always stranger than fiction.
