I'm finally home! I was supposed to fly home yesterday morning, but my flight got canceled because of crew issues (not weather), and the airlines overbook so drastically across the board that the closest they could get to Philly yesterday was to fly into Atlantic City and bus passengers to Philly airport! No seats on any other flights all day long. Rididculous! Talk about a lynch mob of angry travelers. I was able to maintain a zen state, because I'd been to an AA meeting yesterday morning with my cousin-in-law (finally I'm no longer the only *recovering* family alky!) that put me in such a calm frame of mind that I just sat back amongst the throbbing crowd knowing there wasn't jacksh*t I could do other than wait to get rescheduled. It all worked out...I got a free upgrade to business class for this morning and left Atlanta on time and arrived here 20 minutes ahead of schedule.
This is the longest I've been away from my blog, and reading all yours', and I'm in acute withdrawal. After I take home the dog's babysitter, I'm going to catch up on reading and posting. In short, I'm so glad I went this weekend. The wedding was wonderful - a truly happy occasion. It was great seeing the family. The knees held up pretty well, though they are stiff and I feel like an octogenarian walking around! There are countless details that I will share, but for now suffice to say it was a glorious weekend, and having the extra day in Atlanta gave me that much more chance to see my son and for Tom and I to drive around some of the old neighborhoods we used to haunt.
More later - I'm ready to eat clean, start moving more, and welcome spring in a few days. Oh Auntie Em, there's no place like home!
We missed you!!! Welcome back.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Glad you were able to keep your zen state even through all the riggamaroll.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! And well done on the upgrade. I was upgraded a BA flight from Heathrow to Seattle simply because I asked the steward how HE was when he enquired how I was... He said it was the first time a passenger had done something other than grunt back at him on the flight! People are so rude... :o( But I benefited from my politeness. :o)
ReplyDeleteI missed you. I kept wondering about you, and then remembering about the wedding and telling myself not to freak out. Great job keeping zen. I used to be that person. Now I'm a little frazzled. XP
