Going thru withdrawls...

The newest love in our life is Iztim.."Izzy" for short, She is our parti-schnauzer, She is 14 months old ...This weekend we had to fly her to Texas...So she could stay with her Granny & Grampy..
They will spoil her rotten for the next 30 days.. As we drove off, I cried like a 2 year old .. How do we get so attached to these fuzzy creatures? Growing up I was not allowed to have a pet, We raised Greyhounds in Texas & my Grandpa thought "Pets" were just another mouth to feed & who needed that luxury.

The joys of flying standby @ DFW yesterday proved to be a challenge in keeping my blood pressure down...thank goodness for the USO.. We started at DFW about 11am, by noon we had been bumped once... by 155 bumped twice... Okay, how creative can one be with being forced to compete with seats for the Masters in Augusta... Masters "1" Standby "0" by 445 CLT was our saving grace & we got out on the last 2 First Class seats, Maybe the "standby" Gods felt sorry for us.

We arrived late last night into Columbia.. We had come home to a quiet house.. for those of us who love their pets, know that this is a horrible feeling... It is going to be a very long 30 days, YET... We only have 11 more days till we fly to London and start our holiday/cruise...
I'm sure this will console me some. (Ha Ha)
