Mark and I will be spending our first Christmas apart. Such is the story of our life.
My uncle passed away this afternoon so tomorrow I will be flying from Pittsburgh to Atlanta (2 hour layover) then to Dallas and then I have a 5 hour layover and will be back on my way to St. Louis to be with my family. I am currently the only one in the family who is not in Breese. I wish I could be with them sooner but it's just not possible.
Mark has been at work since 4AM and they are not having any luck with the job. The water is freezing since it's -10 here. The company wants to try again next Monday but Marks company wants to continue to work on the well. I vote to go Monday but needless to say I don't get a vote. I am already having to look into other flights for Mark because there is a very good chance that he will not be able to make the flight tomorrow. This has been a very emotional day with lots of flights being booked and cancelled.
When I finally did get to talk to Mark tonight he said that he will fly up for the funeral on Friday so we will see what happens.
We had all of our plans made and in order and now everything is out of whack. I know for sure I will be on a plane tomorrow to Dallas and St. Louis and I have no idea when Mark will join me.
My Dad seems to be doing okay. He was with my uncle when he died. I can't imagine being with my brother when he dies. I'm not very good with death. I never know what to do or say.
I have all of our bags packed which has been a challenge in itself. Mark and I can both check a bag and carry one on. I have a big suitcase with the presents and some of Marks clothes in it. I had to fit ALL of my things in my one bag since marks dad will be bringing me another bag with my parents clothes so that gives me my two bag allowance. It's been a royal pain.
I'm gonna go have some dinner by myself....yummy fish sticks.
