After a day of cancellations, delays, and absolutely no sleep, I finally made it home. 

First, it would be fair to say that I was lucky enough to meet some really exceptional people while I was flying.  I’m fairly outgoing, and don’t hesitate to start up conversations with my neighbors while flying.  I met a wonderful lady that had survived breast cancer, and was beginning to change her life because of what she’d been through.  On my next flight, I met an Investment Banker that was so very much like my best friend Crystal that I couldn’t help my sat.  Our flight was 4 hours long, and we chatted the whole way.  To be quite honest, I didn’t notice my take-offs or landings — the ones that usually make me sick and cry.  So all in all, it was ok.

I drove in around midnight.  It felt great to finally arrive, even though something was missing.  Went to sleep too late, got up too early.  Breakfast with family, and a visit with my niece, Kiera.  She was is so sweet, and so observant.  I saw her this morning wearing my glasses, and this evening again with out them.  She said, “Hi Auntie Mandy… where’s you glasses?”  I hadn’t even noticed I didn’t have them on.

Anyways.  Gift wrapping is mostly done.  I can’t wait to give out my presents.  It’s nice to be here (though it’s damn cold!)  Arg.  Don’t know what else to write.  Got distracted and lost my flow.
