woohoo

As you can see from the title, I'm in a good mood. He's home--his plane came in Wednesday night. With him he brought one hell of a flu strain...he had such a high fever that he thought he was seeing bugs on the walls (the kids thought he was nuts), and doesn't remember any of Friday morning. He's better now, but he passed it on to Bum. Yay.

Anyhoo, now we're thinking about how to do the wedding...I know--9 years of being engaged is long enough. We don't want anything big...just a small family and friends thing.

As far as the baby, 30 weeks now and it never stops kicking...I think I'll keep ya in suspense for a teeny while longer....

til next time...=)

still waiting

Once again, it's 12 hours and counting.  After bitching to the United Airlines agent last night (it was their fault he wasn't home y'day), they finally booked him on an American Airlines flight for 4:30 this afternoon.  Then he'll connect in Chicago, and come home.  His friend gets out of work at 2pm, and they'll drive 1 1/2 hours to the airport in Cedar Rapids.  I'm not thinking positive about this.  In fact, until I hear from him that he's on the plane from Chicago to Scranton, I'm still thinking that he's not coming home today.  I'm tired of thinking that he's coming home today, only to be disappointed and stressed out when I hear that he's not.  I'm watching the websites of both airlines like a hawk today.  So far, so good--they're still on time.  But like I said, I'm not celebrating until he's on that connecting flight.  Wish him luck.

til next time...=)

help me

I'm THISCLOSE to tears now...he's not home yet...who knows at this point when he will be.  His flight to AVP (Scranton) got cancelled due to crew problems (whatever that means...Brandi!), so I booked him on a flight to Allentown, 2 hours away.  When the time came to get to the airport in Cedar Rapids, there was a jackknifed tractor trailer on the highway, and traffic was at a standstill.  Couldn't make it to the airport.  Had to reschedule....AGAIN.  Tomorrow.  Did that, but now he can't make it to the airport for 3:00pm, due to his friend having to work.  Right now I'm trying to reschedule another flight...wish me luck and...I NEVER ask for this...pray for me (since He doesn't like me...).  I'm desperate here.  I'm losing my mind faster than...than...I dunno.  SEE?!?  Help me...I'm going doooooooooowwwwwwwwwwn...

til next time...=) <~~trying to, anyway

exactly twelve hours and counting

I can't wait.  He called me at 6:00 this morning to tell me he was thinking of me...we talked on the phone for nearly two hours.  Most of which was saying how much we missed each other.  And how soon we can get married.  And other things.  I'm probably going to jump on him at the airport.  Just maul* the crap out of him.  And who knows what'll happen tomorrow, being that I'm off and the kids will be at school....lol.  Gotta make up for lost time, you know.  I know it's been just 9 days, but it feels like forever.  It's the longest we've ever been apart in 11 years.

til next time...=)

*maul--kiss and hug until he pleads and begs for mercy.

why

Right now I'm sitting here wondering why. 

Why does everything I do have to be a challenge?  Why is it that everything that should come easy, has to have some sort of catch to it?  Why do God and Mother Nature hate me?  Why can't something good happen, without something going wrong first?  Why can't things ever go as planned?  Why do I feel like I can't get anything right?  Why do I have to work harder to get what I want?  Why do I feel as if I have to seriously struggle to get things to go in my favor?  What did I do to become forever doomed?  Why me?

Why am I saying all of this?  He's not home yet...not til Tuesday now.  He was supposed to come home tonight (within the hour, to be exact), but Mother Nature had other plans...

til next time...=(
