Merry? Ha....

Day 3 of being in a hotel, but there is hope!  I couldnt get out of Baltimore on Monday due to the backlog of flights that were cancelled on Saturday during the blizzard.  And let me just take this time to say I will NEVER...EVER..(insert Smokey voice here)...book a flight with Delta Airlines. They are THE most unprofessional, uncoordinated bunch of asses I have ever had to deal with.  There were a number of fights almost started at the airport as a result of their ignorant agents. 

Attempt number 2 to get home to Oklahoma was made on Christmas Eve, but I'll be damned if Oklahoma didnt pick that day to have a blizzard, so they cancelled all flights to and from.  My original plan was to go to San Antonio to kick it with some people I used to be stationed with there.  Then my daughters father (see I usually call him my donor but Im trying to be good) asked me to come to Dallas so she could spend Christmas with him and his family.  Hence the reason I spent a wonderful Christmas with Marriott....staying the night at his house would've been a little too "National Lampoon" like for me.

This is the first Christmas in my 29 years that I've missed a Christmas with my family in the country, but I never would've imagined the cluster that I've dealt with trying to get here.   After all I've been through this holiday season (losing my papa at Thanksgiving and now this), please forgive me if I fail to see what's so 'merry'. 

Hopefully yours was better than mine...
