Tomorrow morning I will be up at 6AM with bags packed , ready to escape the grey winter for the beach paradise of Aruba. I know, I know there’s nothing I can complain about.
Hmmm, I do have a head cold that Tuvia keeps promising is coming to an end( I hope) and I have PRESSURE to create a digital document for a Board Of Education on March 15th.
So I am not free, but I am going back to the same island, the same hotel and the man coming along with me will tolerate my creative process most of the time.
I did keep the week of the 15th pretty open for this piece with lots of support if I need it at my Apple store with Tom and the brand new Final Cut Pro X software I’ve been avoiding mastering.
But the deadline is etched in stone and even though I will suffer from sleepless nights with images of my movie floating everywhere I have what I need to bring back a good, solid rough cut.
So, I am just about ready to call it a night as the girls perform tonight on American Idol.
How perfect- Slicing in Aruba and reflecting on my digital documentary with a community of writers I know and love :-
Here we go! See you on the other side of the world

Weren’t you in Aruba during the SOLSC a few years ago?
Have a great time! Give Tuvia my best.
I think I’ve been somewhere every March 1st. Israel a few times, Arbua yes.. this is our third Aruba trip in a row…
THanks for this month of fun Stacey!
Tuvia says hi back
Bonnie
Have a wonderful trip, enjoy your creative process and lose that cold. I look forward to seeing the new project.
I look forward to having something to show you 🙂 I think my cold broke around 4 AM
Bonnie
Enjoy the sunshine and warmth, my friend!
Thank you. We are off to a great month of writing together 🙂
Bonnie
What a perfect start— I love that this is the first slice of the March 2012 challenge that I read. Safe travels…and I’ll be jealous like I am each March of your warm photos.
Ruth
You rock lady! Can’t wait to get time to read and write with you!
Bonnie
Hey – have fun.
I wondered if you would be slicing away this year.
Bring us some sun and warmth, willya?
Kevin
Aruba?! I’m just tossing out ideas here but maybe we need a slicers retreat in Aruba? Bonnie you’d be proud. My kids are making their very first digital memoirs!
I hope we are getting photos every day from Aruba like before. Enjoy the sunshine and know that I am so jealous.
I love reading about your adventures with Tuvia. Somehow I always feel I am there traveling right along with you. And I just have to say there are words I love to say because I like they way they roll off my tongue and I love the sound they make…Tuvia is one of them:)
Aruba- the word even sounds relaxing. I love the mention of “jumping in” along with the idea of the beach. Both ideas seem connected. The beach is definitely the “savory slice of life”. Enjoy!!
I look forward to your writing from Aruba. (nice ring to it already.) It makes me think of your trip to Israel the first year I participated in this community. I’m also looking forward to your photos! bon voyage.
Hurray for slicing in Aruba! Have a wonderful trip, Bonnie! Looking forward to the words and the images!
