(delayed) status update

I’m currently sitting at the airport in …. Ohio / Kentucky.

My flight is currently two hours delayed and all I want to do right now is be looking at some Christmas cheer in NYC. Instead, the seat that I found near an electrical outlet is conveniently located near the moving walkway … which announces about every 15 seconds “caution the moving walkway is ending”. It’s killing me slowly.

I haven’t written in about a week so I figured I’d use this opportunity to do a little update. I’m feeling a little negative nelly right now and will use this as an opportunity to remind myself of why I’m one lucky duck.

Sometimes all that it takes to make me happy is some good tv and a big ole bath tub. Even if it is in Ohio.

5:40 AM flights are terrible. Nobody should have to put on tights at that hour of the day, it’s inhuman…. thankfully, you can score a great sunrise.

I did a little math … and I’ve made approximately 208 peanut butter cookies since mid-October.

Post annual sisterly Christmas party breakfast …. and the corn griddle cakes are a new recipe. Oh, and that bacon…. it was a hostess gift. My friends know me too well.

Just your average mid-week dinner of Kraft Mac and Cheese …. by the glow of my Christmas tree. Man, do I love that baby.

Sibling photo from the Christmas party this past weekend. Yes, we are matching. That’s how we roll.

So I’m going to continue to work on being positive while I wait for my flight to change from “delayed” to “boarding”. I will get to NYC tonight, I just won’t get there when I wanted to. That’s okay. What isn’t okay is that my tights are slowly sinking further and further down my legs … like they do on toddlers. 

You win some, you lose some.
