Long day

Thursday seemed like the longest day ever. I had to go to Vancouver for an appointment, so I set my alarm for 0430 since I would have to leave the house by 0515 at the latest so that I could drive to the airport so I would make my flight. Inevitably, I awoke at 0342 instead. This always seems to happen when I KNOW I cannot sleep in! I tried going back to sleep but the snowplow whooshed by so that was the end of that!
Spent the day in Van but was not armed with names of knitting shops or addresses so I didn't buy any new yarn. I know, some of you are appalled at this moment.....however all is not lost as I picked up some wool at Michael's yesterday to start a cabled scarf or a fair isle hat.
I arrived back at the airport in Plenty of time to make my 1935 flight back only to find it had been Delayed by 1 1/2 HOURS!!!! Luckily I had my knitting with me and merrily passed the time doing that. In my peripheral hearing I was amazed at how some people could go on and on chatting mindlessly about not much of anything.....to complete strangers! Luckily I was able to tune out most of it:)
Anyway by the time we landed it was 2205 and by the time I walked in the door of home sweet home it was 2315. I was done.
