I just got off the plane from Carlsbad in Albuquerque, New Mexico, got through security with American Airlines and sent to my gate where my plane is to take off to Chicago, Illinois where my trip home will be halfway away. I am heading back home from staying in Carlsbad, New Mexico with my mom and her husband LLL for my Thanksgiving Day vacation with family for ten days. Actually I spent eight full days in New Mexico and took two full days to travel since on Friday, November 19th I stayed up from 3 a.m. - 12:30 a.m. and was up on November 29th from 4 a.m. - 9:30 p.m. traveling to and from. Getting to New Mexico was the LONGEST day of travel comparing to the travel time from New Mexico back to Janesville, Wisconsin.

Anyway...

My plane leaves Albuquerque, New Mexico to Chicago O'Hare at 1:25 p.m. this afternoon and I will get to Chicago O'Hare AP a little after 5 p.m., get my luggage at the baggage claim area, and head to the bus shuttle to head from Chicago O'Hare to Janesville, Wisconsin.

Now that I am traveling back home, I do have to admit that my need and want to be in my own place, see Bing Crosby the cat again, and get back in my routine at home does seem to be a need right now. I have shed tears as the flight from Carlsbad to Albuquerque began after my mom helped me get my two bags on the plane and she left watching the plane leave into the air to Albuquerque, New Mexico 200 miles away.

More later...
