African American Weddings

It has been the LONGEST week. I've missed TK

So I posed like a week ago last when I was stuck in Belgium. On Monday I finally got a flight out of Belgium to Chicago. Well in Chicago I was waitlisted and I was stuck in Chicago for over 15 hours. Flight after flight I would still be so low on the list that I never made it on a flight. Over and over United Airlines flights to San Francisco left without me. I got tired of moving back and forth around the airport. I had already been calling my mom. By the time it was about 6pm she and my godmother were online looking for flights to get me home. The best flight they could get me wasn't until 5:15am the next morning. I was just done and I was like "oh well". I remember breaking down into tears at one point because I was so tired and stressed. I ended up spending the night in the aiprort alone at gate B8 until about 4am when I went to the US Airways check-in to get my flight to Phoenix and then to SF from there. I got home smelling horrible and looking like a crazy woman.

With the whole ordeal I had to miss my first 2 days of the semester. I emailed a few of my teachers from the airport and they were all very understanding, Thank God! I started school in Wednesday and I have been so tired. I never got time to re-adjust to the time, I had to start school all jet-lagged. It caught up with me last night when I was waiting up to talk to my FI and I feel asleep.

I'm home now and things are good! Though the day I left my FMIL tried to start drama. I had too much on my mind to deal with her. She did inform me that she and her husband would not be coming to the wedding. I am okay with it in that I am going to save so much money because I had planned to do special stuff with them for their first trip to the US, but oh well their loss. I do feel bad that they are going to miss the wedding of their only son and child, again a huge loss for them.

This coming week I am putting down the deposit on the reception location and I'm soooo excited to have something that big taken care of. I kicked started my Weight Watchers plan again because I want to slim down some before ordering my dress. I'm back on the wagon!
