Crazy Weather

Ok I gotta say the last weekend was busy, busy, busy. But in all reality I don't mind. I love my kids and I love being in the Army, so the lack of sleep I get when I am home for a BTA weekend is of little consequence. What is of a larger deal is when that lack of sleep catches up to me. As it did Monday morning. To keep costs down in traveling back for military duties, I fly into Minneapolis, and rent a car to take me the rest of the way to Fargo. Monday my flight was scheduled to leave at 6:55 am, and I am pretty sure it did..... minus one passenger. Sunday night I decided to take a short nap, and then I was going to hit the road, to make sure I didn't miss my flight. It takes me about 4 hours to get from my apartment to the airport, to give some background information. Anyways that short nap turned into a 5 hour one, as I woke up at 4:00 am. Do the math, and yep I was going to miss my flight. I called the airlines, made arrangements and booked a later flight, all from my apartment. That could have been a big mistake, because when I walked outside, my posterior almost made fast and ready friends with the concrete sidewalk.... it was freezing rain. Yeah I had about an eighth on an inch on the windows of the rental. My new flight was scheduled to leave at 10:40 am, and I had serious doubts as to if I were going to make it or not. Fortunately it the rain stopped east of Fargo, so the roads were good all the way to the airport. Now from what I hear, North Dakota is going through a blizzard with several inches of snow, and where I am at in Texas is under a thunderstorm warning. Crazy weather.
