I am 36 years old. Happily married in 2000 to a wonderful man who I met on the internet. :o) I have a step-daughter who is soon to be married. I moved from Indiana to Georgia in 2000, talk about your culture shock! I'm by no means perfect, but I am striving to be the woman God would have me to be. Proverbs 31 is my goal, but I am still a work in progress.

    Off to Oregon

    Yesterday we took my step-daughter to the airport for her flight to Oregon to see her mom. We left at 10:30am and did not get home until about 6:30pm. My husband was very nervous about this whole thing, he has never flown and has no desire to ever fly. This trip is the whole reason we got cell phones. My step-daughter is 15 and we did not like the idea of her flying by herself, so the cell phones gave us a little piece of mind. Her flight left Nashville a little early at 2:15pm and she arrived in San Diego at about 8:20pm (our time). She called us when she got there and told us that she may have to detour to Oakland because there was fog in Sacramento and they may not be able to land. The biggest problem was that her mom and grandmother were coming to pick her up at the Sacramento Airport. They live several hours from the airport so they left earlier in the day and we had no way of getting in touch with them. Well, they were able to land in Sacramento, so all worked out well. I was so furious with her mom though, she had no business on that plane in the first place (She still has legal custody so she calls the shots). When she decided to move to Oregon, she said that she would be coming here to visit because she did not want her daughter flying by herself until she was older. Within a month my step-daughter informed us that her mom had told her that her mom planned for her to fly out to Oregon right before school started back in the fall. She wanted us to pay half of the ticket and we couldn't so that trip didn't happen. She then made plans for her fly to Oregon for Christmas. What happened to her not wanting her daughter to fly? It was just more convenient I guess. Well, I could rant and rave about this more, but I won't. She arrived safely to her destination and will be enjoying (hopefully) her Christmas vacation with her mom. We sure are going to miss her though. It's nice having the alone time with hubby, but I will miss her.
