Coming home!!!

I finally made home, on friday!!! My flight got in on thursday but I couldn't make it home... But let me back up and tell it in some kind of order. Wensday night I left SVU at 9:30pm to go to Washington DC to the airport. I got to the airport around 12am, but they were not checking people in so I grabbed a seat and watched back to the future and entrapment. I check in at 5am and then I got a call from my mom. She said the freeways were closed due to snow and ice and she couldn't get out of town to get me from the airport unless it reopened. So I called her when I got to Oakland only to find out that the freeways hadn't been opened yet.. I started to get a bit panicy so I called mt friend Brittany to she what she was doing. She had just finished her finals on wenday and had nothing planned for the day, so I told her my delemia. I was flying into long beach and she was going to school in LA. She offered to come and get me so I didn't have to spend all day at the airport. Talk about being a lifesaver!!! I was greatful. So she picked me up and then we went to lunch and then to the Santa Monica pier because she was in disbeleif that I had never been. They let me stay the night and I went home with them and I got in to town at 6pm!!! It was interesting... But man, was I glad that I have friends!!!

Oh last year I heard an amazing poem! Check it out:


'Twas The Night Before Jesus Came'
written by Unknown Author

'Twas the night before Jesus came and all through the houseNot a creature was praying, not one in the house.Their Bibles were lain on the shelf without careIn hopes that Jesus would not come there.

The children were dressing to crawl into bed.Not once ever kneeling or bowing a head.And Mom in her rocker with baby on her lapWas watching the Late Show while I took a nap.

When out of the East there arose such a clatter.I sprang to my feet to see what was the matter.Away to the window I flew like a flash,Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash!

When what to my wondering eyes should appearBut angels proclaiming that Jesus was here.With a light like the sun sending forth a bright rayI knew in a moment this must be THE DAY!

The light of His face made me cover my headIt was Jesus! returning just like He had said.And though I possessed worldly wisdom and wealth,I cried when I saw Him in spite of myself.

In the Book of Life which He held in His handWas written the name of every saved man.He spoke not a word as He searched for my name;When He said "it's not here" my head hung in shame.

The people whose names had been written with loveHe gathered to take to His Father above.With those who were ready He rose without a sound.While all the rest were left standing around.

I fell to my knees, but it was too late;I had waited too long and thus sealed my fate.I stood and I cried as they rose out of sight;Oh, if only I had been ready tonight.

Merry Christmas!!!!!!
