The remains of the day...

This has been a day from hell...

It all started well enough...we awoke at 4 am and got on the first leg of our trip home - the flight from Huntsville to Atlanta. Two hour connection. Things going well.

Until...our flight to Newark was canceled. And, gee whiz Delta Airlines, thanks SO much for not bothering to book us on another flight!! (Notice the hint of hostility creeping into my voice at this point.)

Four hours later, including several hours on hold on the phone, countless lines at the airport, and we finally get booked to Newark...tomorrow.

Can you sense how completely to irate I am at this point? And can I just say that somehow Delta has managed to find the ONLT rude and condescending people in the southern United States, and proudly hired them to "help" displaced passengers??? (radiating irritation at this point...)

We are now sitting in a hotel (that WE are paying for) with NO luggage (because heaven forbid Delta should give it to us) in Atlanta, Georgia. We shall trundle ourselves off to the airport in the morning, hoping to get on a flight to Cincinnati Ohio, where we will sit for several hours before finally boarding a flight to Newark. If the fates smile on us, we will eventually get home sometime around 7 tomorrow night. (yep, oozing sarcasm.)

Today's blip is of my beloved hubs, hard at work at the desk in our hotel room. The remains of the day...
