Catching up

Well it's been awhile....let's catch up....

Coming home from Florida (AKA "going to hell in a hand basket"):

1. The day before we (me and Lily) left marked the beginning of the Great Flooding of Texas 2015. I knew we would get stuck in Houston because I ALWAYS GET STUCK IN HOUSTON!

2. I wake up with the WORST migraine, but flights go well until, of course, we start to make our way to Houston.

3. The flight from Florida to Houston was supposed to take two hours, we were about 20 minuets out before things took a turn.

4. Houston airport isn't taking any planes due to weather, but we don't have enough fuel to just fligh around waiting so we have to land to get more fuel.

5. If we had just a bit more fuel we would have just flown to Corpus to refuel (which would have been perfect for us, because that was our destination), BUT it doesn't. So, we fly to New Orleans.

6. We sit on the plane ( if we get off we are "no longer their responsibility"). Wait. Refuel. When we go to leave to go to Houston but then get told we will have to take the long way around the storm, which, of course, we don't have enough fuel still for.

7. We return to refuel for the SECOND time. We FINALLY make it to Houston after a two hour flight turns into SEVEN.

8. Of course at this point there are no more flights, but we really want to be home so we go to the costumer Service people, and as we walk up to the desk THEIR ENTIRE SYSTEM COMPLETELY GOES DOWN.

9. Okay, so we wait and decide to get some food (because our flight had no snacks and no SKYMALL!). It was awful and everything was closing.

10. Systems still not working, so we just go get a hotel.

11. The motel has a free shuttle and when we ask what time the shuttle will be there in the morning to take us back to the airport we are told that the shuttle driver for tomorrow morning is sick, so we have to pay for a cab....great.

12. Flash forward, we make it home, but not without a cherry on top....As we are driving home home my car (I asked Bruce to bring the toaster to fit all the luggage) decides it's done working and every light comes on, the AC goes out, and it feels like it's about to die any minuet. (shout out: thank you Carter for fixing and cleaning it!!)  

Since I have been back:

Bruce and I have done lots of fun stuff that we are going to blog about on our couple's blog thecouplect.blogspot.com once he gets back from his business trip in College Station. 

I've sampled a lot.

Started swimming .

Isaac (one of my kitties) has feline acne.... lol O the teenage years....

Binged on Supernatural, Doctor Who, and movies with Bruce that I'll discuss in on our couple blog. 

Fallen in LOVE with the new Witcher game and started reading the books, again with Bruce so I'll wait to elaborate on those.
