British Airways, flight 217----tracking it on travelocity, should be landing very soon!!!! Mark and Dad should almost be at the airport now, they stopped a while ago for McDonalds.
Update, Mark just called, they are at the airport...they said if mom was grouchy they'd stick her in the trunk with her pillows.
We were given two hands to hold, two eyes to see, two ears to listen & two legs to walk. But why were we given only one heart? The other heart was given to another for us to find.
Dulles Airport....My grandad, moms dad, passed away and 2 weeks after she got home from her vacaction to England she had to return to England....I've missed her bad....she was gone for 6 weeks first, home for 2, then away again for 4 1/2 weeks.
She did change her ticket though so she'd be home for Thanksgiving and Black Friday, originally she was supposed to return on Nov. 30th.
So she hasn't been on the forum much for a long time....but I think she has 1,000 posts under her belt.
I'm all caffeined up on chocolate from English candy....Malteesers, Aero bars, Crunchies.....AHHHHHHHHH, I love it!
I got the coolest gifts of all from my Nana....the family bible, and a brass figurine I asked for to remind me of Grandad...when we were little I'd help him polish all his brass figurines so I really wanted one...it's a small owl...a 3 set of them and my sister and brother will get the others in the set.
Mom had her coffee, she came over for a cig and a chat a while ago and now I'd imagine she's fast asleep...she got her hair cut up to her shoulders and it looks really nice.
Nana knew I'd take good care of that bible....I'll treasure it. And the brass figure is the best thing I could've got to remind me of Grandad.... :ding:
I don't do caffeine at all, so when I eat chocolate I get all hyper...imagine that.

Hi guys, well it seems like forever since i was on here, thank you for your welcome home. I'am a bit jet lagged right now, and I'am full off a cold, but I'am on the mend.
Its been a very sad time for me,and especially for my Mum, my Mum and Dad had been married for 60yrs,and know matter what you say to console her, nothing seems too help, she will have to greive in her own way and in her own time. I hated leaving her,It broke my heart seeing her little face watching me go,as my taxi pulled away from the driveway. My Mum and I are really close, like Laura and I are, so you can imagine how painful It was for me to leave her.
I must say my Maurice was overjoyed to see me, and I him, he had missed me so much. He bought me some beutiful red roses, which were lovely, but not half as lovely as the biggest hug I got at the airport. I so happy to be home with Mo and my kids.
I will be on here more often once Athena goes home, which will be after Thanksgiving, thank you guys for all your message Faye
