Boy, was there one happy dog when I came home this afternoon. Ted's parents took me to the airport in Grand Rapids for my flight to Detroit and then to Philadelphia. The planes were on time and everything went well. You are not allow to bring food or drinks on the airplane unless you buy the after you go through security. I got sandwich at the Coffee Beanery and it cost $9.01. Good Grief! I didn't have much choice. It was noontime and I wouldn't get to PHL until after 2pm. There was one other shop but the line was a mile long and the prices were probably the same. What a rip-off. The sandwich was good and its a good thing because I would have really been ticked if it wasn't. The flight was delayed about 20 minutes because it had to be de-iced. It was driving around the runways. I thought it was going to drive to PHL. It went to the de-icing area. My brother, Rick and his wife, Sylvia picked my up in PHL and took me to my brother, Don's where I left my car in his driveway. Parking at Rick's house is at a premium. Each house has one space in back and one in front. Most families have two cars so there is no where to park.
I headed straight home to Maryland before the storm came. It started flurrying as I was driving down the interstate but I made it home before the storm hit. There is about 2 inches out there now. We are supposed to get 4 to 8 inches. It is good to be home. Flying is tiring and it was a very emotional trip. I just can't wrap my mind around the fact that Kathy is gone. I know she is but it just doesn't seem possible.

I know what you mean when you say you just can't wrap your mind around Kathy being gone. I think what I do when someone becomes very ill, and they were in such good health before, it takes me a long time before it becomes real in my mind, and, to fully grasp they are not coming back to me while I'm still here on Earth. And, we'll have lots of questions for God as to why some of these dreadful deaths occured to these fine precious loved ones. We all wanted Kathy, and your husband Ted to be able to beat the monster that cancer is. They both had such strong minds and a fierce desire to live, it just didn't seem possible that they could lose this battle. Both Ted and his sister Kathy will live on in the hearts of their families, and to their many friends forever.
Glad you're home safely. Love, Ruth
