Home Saturday

Saturday was the day to come home. The 0800 shuttle to Dublin airport, and their insistance that no hand cream would be allowed on board (even though it was less than 3 oz and in a plastic bag). So I shoved all into suitcase and off through security we went. Wow, what an event. I think everyone was being frisked. The lines were really long. The really nice gate attendent let us through the fast track lane. they were just trying to clear some people through. We made it through okay and then shopped and waited and waited and waited. Finally we boarded and flew to Shannon.

Did I ever tell you I hate flying. Really and truely - each up and down makes me nuts. Add that stress (2 flights) plus being over water (the Atlantic Ocean) I ended up with a really really bad headache. I actually had it before the flight, but I think that the stress of flying just made it worse. They made us get off at Shannon, go through customs there and then security again to get back on. But, I got to visit duty free and put hand creme on. I was happy.

Got a limo and made it home. Alyssa and Richard put up the tree and all looks well. We have a happy Q and a a happy Alan. Now back to work tomorrow. I am seriously jet lagged. I just hope it gets better. I will post pictures to all my old posts this week. I am glad to be home.
