UGH!!!! We didn't arrive in the driveway until almost 1AM this morning!!!!! Our son, Jeremy, had called yesterday morning...late...and told us he would arrive in STL at 5pm. Well..........we had already made plans to return to Washington, MO, for Meghan's postponed Christmas program......at 6:30pm
So, when Jeremy called again, I told him that when he arrived at 5pm to go get a sandwich and a beer and then we would be there around 8pm to pick him up. He was cool with that....and so we left Monroe City for STL.......actually Chesterfield Commons for some shopping. We had a quick late lunch at Panera Bread.......EXCELLENT Chicken Fontega Panini!!!!.....and then drove out to Washington. We arrived in time to get second row seats for the family.........the place then filled up quickly. ALL family members ALWAYS come to see the little 2nd and 3rd Graders perform!!!!!
Oh......Jeremy had called while we were having our 4pm lunch.....and said his flight from Washington DC had been late departing and so he missed his flight from Atlanta to STL!!!!!!! He called again after standing in line to get a ticket to STL......and said he would not arrive until 10pm!!! GREAT......so, we went out to Dr. Jeni's after the program for awhile........and then drove back into STL to pick him up.
I believe I didn't mention above that the Christmas program was just outstanding. Not that I was a partial to anyone person.....hahaha!!! But....it was really great........and I personally thing that Meghan was the star of the stage!!! She LOVES to perform, sings well, and loves to dance and be in front of an audience. Can't imagine where that comes from.....hmmmmmm........
SHIT!!!!!!! The STL airport has to be the most disorganized place for an airport that there is in this country!!!!!!! There is no way you can pick up a person without driving around the airport roads at least 4-5 times before you can find a place to park for only five minutes for a curbside pickup!!!!! We did this.....and then we did it again.....and again....and again....and I believe it was finally the 6th time around before we got the nose of the car into a small space.......just like being back in Cairo!!!!!
We finally arrived home as I said........VERY late!!!
This morning we are preparing to go have an afternoon dinner with Michael.....and so this will be short. More later.........
Life is GREAT!!!!!!......And, I hope it is for all of you, also!!!!!!
