Please drive with your lights on.

On Tuesday, September 11. I am not sure if there is an email circulating about this but another flight attendant posted a message about it on my flight attendant forum. Drive with your lights on to say, "We will never forget. Never." The first people to die that day were the flight attendants. That hits pretty close to home for me. I was home on maternity leave with Brady when the towers were hit. I won't go into more. Please drive with your lights on.
That brings me to another subject. I officially resigned from Northwest Airlines. I hated doing it. I just ended a 9+ year relationship and it hurts. But my kids are only little for so long and I can't be away from them anymore. Michael tried to help by pointing out the pros. I came up with some of my own: No more phone calls with a little voice on the other end sobbing and hyperventilating wanting me to come home. No more missed birthdays, PTA meetings, Christmas, or school programs. It was hard on my ladybug when I was gone. She once told me, "When you were gone for eight days I cried for you two times." I hated those long stretches. Plus I know people just don't do things the way your mom would. I remember when I was little and my mom would leave. I HATED it. I will continue to work at Wheeling Island. Sadly, I think I will earn as much or more there, than I would have at Northwest. AND work less days. But you should see the look on people's faces when I tell them I work at the track. I wish people weren't so shallow.
I believe all things happen for a reason. All this is part of God's plan for me. And I would never question Him.
On to brighter subjects! The Mountaineers pulled it off yesterday! Woohoo! I was so nervous at half time I had to go clean the bathroom. (maybe they should have a bad first half more often ;0)) As I got in the shower I heard Michael say they tied it up. And then the second half, POW! Yeah baby! The Herd got whooped 48-23.
I thought I would share this video. Be sure to stop it when the screen goes black unless you like Metallica!
