Attempting To Start Blogging

Well here goes. I m not sure how much I will keep up with this, but its sounds like a good way to let everyone know whats going on in my life.

First I just got back from a much needed trip to see my family. We had such a great time together. It is so hard being so far apart. We only get to see each other a couple times a year. We're pretty close too so not seeing each other is hard. I can't believe how time changes things. Looking at my sisters kids they grow so fast. I can't believe how different the all are every time I see them. And now my brother having his first baby. It's crazy. I'm glad that I will be seeing them again soon. Well a couple of months.

My mom and I had plans to fly out Thursday night to Newark then on to Raleigh. Well of course flying never quit works out like you plan. We got there with plenty of time to spare and as we were waiting to board we hear that our flight was delayed only a mere 3 hours. Rediculous. We were going to miss our connecting flight in Newark. We went up to the counter to talk to an agent thank God we were only second in line. But of course we got someone who didn't have a clue what she was talking about. She told us that every flight with every carrier through every city was booked. Ya right. But she made no effort to accomidate us. She told us the earliest we could get out was Saturday. Sort of pointless we had to come back Monday. Then we tried to just rent a car to drive down and keep our returning flights for Monday so that at least we wouldn't have to drive both ways. She told us that because we wouldn't be rescheduling our outgoing flights that they would cancel our returning flights. What the heck kind of airline is this. AAAAaaaaa!!!!! So frustrating. So we ended up canceling everything and just drove 12 hours there and 12 hours back. Mind you that my brother was on the phone with us looking at flights both days. Why he could find them and she couldn't I'll never know. All I know is that I will never fly continental again. They are horrible. But we got there and it was worth the drive. I love spending time with my brother and sister and her many children.
