Feeling good tonight....despite having had a long day in the air and at airports. Second flight was over an hour delayed...while we were all sitting at the gate waiting, our flight crew was in the chow line and forgot they had a plane to get off the ground. Go figure. At least Captain Cowboy was not on duty ( Read more... )

I came across something tonight. Actually, on a hunch, I got online and searched for something tonight. I found it. I didn't realize that when I found it that it would make my heart hurt so badly. I felt like I did 8 years ago when I stood in the doorway of my home for the last time - the day I promised myself that I would never, ever, for as ( Read more... )

I'm tired...I need my vacation to Switzerland...I need this passport issue to be resolved...but I don't want to make contact with the one person to resolve it. Maybe I can just go somewhere like Opp Alabama and pretend I'm in another country...it'd almost be the same thing. Wouldn't it?

The one thing about living in an apartment, sometimes (and I say that in jest), you can hear your neighbors. Take this morning for instance. My company had left, and I just gotten out of the shower and was getting myself ready to go pick up my daughter ( Read more... )

Those that understand bionary and those that don't....

 I was able to go to downtown Chicago tonight...  What a beautiful city.  There is SO much to do.  Saw Soldier's Field and Navy Pier.  Drove down the Magnificent Mile..got up close and personal with Lake Michigan.  Now, there's something you don't say everyday down South.  Not necessarily a place I'd like to live, but definately want to bring the ( Read more... )

 OK...I know I've stated I'm not afraid of flying...however, this past Saturday - I became afraid...and fast.  On the flight from Atlanta to Chicago...we hit turbulance.  It wasn't just a little bump here, and a little bump there...it was down right boulders in the road.  The plane was jumping all over the place, loosing alltitude, the as soon as ( Read more... )

I'm missing home already and I just left yesterday.  Had supper tonight with the two Technology Directors, and had a very enjoyable time.  Had some homemade Chicago pizza...  Tomorrow night we're supposed to go to a new pub.   The city where I'm staying is really nice.  It has a relatively small town feel and is very pretty area.  The district ( Read more... )

I'm so very PROUD of my precious Sweet Pea!  She had two solos in her Schools Spring Musical tonight!!!  And she did an awesome job!!  Totally beyond my expectations and I've been hearing her practice at home for the last 3 weeks...   She amazes me!  She's so shy with people, doesn't like talking in front of people, but gets up in front of several ( Read more... )
