Jobs are down...wages are down...stocks are down...sales are down...freeways are down...confidence is down...closed on strike Across the land, people are rallying with the good old American sarit. Cathy and coworkers: TAKE ME SOMEPLACE WHERE I CAN PRETEND THIS ISN'T HAPPENING!!! Airplane tag: Travel is up.
Oh, this totally applied to me! I ignored life this past week, enjoyed a wonderful place to stay, relaxed, ate a lot and had a fantastic time!!! And we fly on most of our vacations (we only drive to FL)… I’m either very tolerant or it’s really not that bad. Sure, some planes are worse than others and have less legroom, but others are fine. And I’ve only been singled out once to be “special” x-rayed… no big deal. My husband travels every other week, so he goes in the frequent flyer lines and goes through quickly. I would only be upset if they mistreated my kids, but they’ve always been extra nice to them and my kids are fine with going through security. It’s all in the attitude, and we enjoy traveling too much to give it up over a line in the airport. Besides we can’t drive to Europe, which we go to almost every year.Glad to be back with you guys! I had a great time, but did think of you all. I didn’t have a computer though and the internet access was too slow on my phone. I’ll have to go back and read what I missed, but happy 4th of July to all! I’m glad that Aaron and Billy missed the bizarre storm and blackout in DC. I did have some stress when I was worried about my elderly mother without electricity, but she managed to find a hotel so that was good.Sorry for the long post, so a quick hello to Aaron, GretchensMom, Billy, KFG, Susan, rgcviper, lindz.coop, hendelca, Mona, serenasakitty, kittycatpawsare, gmforde, soonergal, lippyfish, Mai Tai, Willi Nilli, mollie, legaleagle, Hobbes and all the other Cathy nuts rolling around here today!
