Where did that saying come from... Your destination or bust??? (Just thinking out loud!)In less than 24 hours I should be aboard a plane bound for Dallas where I'll change planes & then be headed to Phoenix.
Wow... my trip is ALMOST here!! WHEW!! Last couple days I've been bouncing off the wall, practically! I'm SOOOO NERVOUS!! AND excited!!
Mainly nervous that about flying. I love to fly... but I didn't have a good flight last year. The pressure was unbelievable... plus my back injury didn't help either.
Well, this time, I will be more prepared & I know what to expect. Plus, my back has been pretty good for more than a week now... KNOCK ON WOOD!! I can't say that it will be like that when I arrive in Az... but we'll see... As I said, I'm prepared... with Ibuprofen and of course Vicodin!
I can't talk to long... I still need to run to Wal-Mart to get a couple things I've forgot last time I went... (read: didn't have enough cash at the time!) Stuff like GUM... I'm going to need GUM for the plane!! I usually will go through about 4 pieces in one flight. Mainly because I have to spit out what I chewed during take off to eat. & Gum pieces now are little... need 2 pieces!! LOL!!
Can you tell, I'm nervous?? I'm also nervous, because I'm afraid of missing my flight... or they'll find my bags to be too heavy or ... well, anything & everything!!
I don't know how I'll miss my flight... it's at 1:50p & we're leaving the house at 10a & it only takes about 90 minutes to get to the airport from our house. So... I think I'll have plenty of time to get there!! LOL.
What really has me nervous is my connecting flight... it's only 40 minutes in between. And I just saw that I have to go from terminal A to terminal C... & I hear Dallas FW is a huge airport... I just hope they have one of them electric carts waiting at the gate!!
I sure hope my departure from Columbus isn't late!!
Ok, it's almost 3:00p & I want to go & get home so I can come back & relax & get to sleep early...
Oh, speaking of... last 2 nights I've gone to bed at a decent time... & again for the 2nd day today, I woke up in the morning!! 8:00a.m.!! WOO HOO! (Yesterday I was up at 6:00a.m.!!) Let's just hope this trip & the jet lag doesn't mess me up again!!
Before I go... below is my Twitter "badge" ... you can use that to read updates that I'll be texting while at airports & etc.
To see past "tweets" just click the arrows on the badge. :o) This is also on my front / home page in my Welcome box.
That's about it for now. Take care everyone & I'll see you in Arizona!! (Yeah, I'll blog while I'm there... just like last year!!) I'll even post some pics too!
I hope you have a lovely time. :) *leaves 10 bars of chocolate to keep you going* ;)

ReplyDeleteHave fun wish we still lived out there would come up to meet you.
ReplyDeleteIts seven hours and 45 minutes for me. My plane is stopping off in Houston, Tx. But, there is no layover. Then its on to Sacramento, where I will be having lunch with my daughter. The only thing that I am worried about is all those damn bird strikes lately. Have a safe flight. I am catching mine out of Pittsburgh, you will probably to to Cleveland.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll be fine at the airports, and you'll have a great time! I can't wait to see your pictures! :o)

ReplyDelete17 hours to go!! :o)
Enjoy hon and RELAX!! don't think about this place till it's time to come home, enjoy being with your dad!!
ReplyDeleteWhere did that saying come from... Your destination or bust???
ReplyDeleteThis saying came from way back in the land rush days. A family would sell almost everything they had, invest in the biggest wagon they could afford and head out to claim their new land in whatever state or territory it was. It was like going for broke. If they didn't make it the trip would be a bust and they would be broke and stranded.
Hope your trip goes well. Don't go bust. :-)
Safe trip!
ReplyDeleteI'M HERE SAFE & SOUND! I'll type you all up a nice blog tomorrow! Got a nice surprise on our way out of the airpot.. But I'll show you when I wake home.
