Chaos


So last night, I was trying to help my mom out by booking her a plane ticket from Wichita to Cincinnatti, OH online. I've done this many times and so we both agreed it would be easier for me to do it. So, after returning from the gym, I called my mom while I was eating dinner and went over the possible flight times and costs with her. We had to call each other back 15x b/c she had to check on the timing with some of the other relatives going to the funeral in OH. Anyway, let's remember the KU game was going on this entire time. Plus, Alex was gone visiting a friend who was in town for the night. This always means that Solomon will be fussy the entire time I'm trying to get something done. After mom and I had settled on flights, I thought, "this will be the easy part." However, it wasn't quite so simple. I tried and failed three times to order the tickets through Travelocity online and finally called. I got this German guy on the phone that I could barely understand and he informed me that one leg of the flight I wanted was sold out.. ugh! Why was it online? Well, apparently it takes some time to update.. Whatever!
I went to United.com and found a cheaper flight and options he claimed were not available. Annoying. Again.. the KU game was going on this whole time and Solomon was crying off and on. I had to feed him, change him, etc... and try to get all of this done. I was irritated, but wanted to get it done. BTW, the bereavement fares were more expensive than the ones offered online, go figure! Anyway, it's booked.

Our new downstairs couch was delivered today. I like it and it should be far more comfortable.

BTW, Solomon has on his shirt that Cherie gave him that says, "mysterio perdicts I will be a donut tycoon". It's very cute. He is also wearing his little corderoy pants. (See above)

I am starving, so I will go eat lunch. Does anyone have some peanut M & Ms they could beam to me? I need some now!

Looks like he sacked himself out crying. I want to see the couch, too! Or I guess I'll just see it live in a few weeks. Wo-hoo!!

Welcome to Kelly's world!!!
