I Made It To Germany!

    To all my friends and family.
     I made it to Germany with the help of my youngest son Derrek. He showed up at the EXACT time I needed him most! So, all is good & I'm still waiting on my bag. Missed connections, packed airports and my disabilities couldn't stop me from getting where I needed to be...
    My grandkids Julian and Lilly were very happy to see me. Still need to catch up on my sleep and get used to the 9 hour difference in time...
    Thank you to the pilots and flight crews of Delta airlines and Lufthansa for the safe flights... and to my son Derrek. He drove a 3 hour round trip TWICE and when he walked up behind me at the baggage claim... at midnight in a snow storm... well, let me say that his face was a joy to see. I broke down right there. "Not all tears are an evil." Thank you to all that made it possible!

    Grandchildren are how you get back at your children for all the times they embarrassed you at the grocery store.  - Go for it.
