guess what thirteen dollars of my dad's money got me last night?

An extra two days in Kansas City over Christmas break.

HECK.

YES.

So here is the story...I was thinking about how when we booked our tickets to go home, the best price we could find on our optional travel dates were to come back on the 30th, which is a Sat. That would leave two extra days, since I dont' work that Monday for New Years Day. Well since I've been a bit homesick lately, I decided to at LEAST look and do some detective work to see if for some strange reason, i could find a flight that would be about the same price, including the change ticket fee, to come back either on the 31st or the 1st...

well...it was really a blessing to find a CHEAPER flight coming back on Monday the 1st than my original flight. It was 37 dollars cheaper, which meant that with the 50 dollar change fee, it would only cost 13 dollars, essentially, to stay two days longer.

So Andrew is going to come back on Sat as planned, and I am coming back to Jackson two days later. My flight leaves at 7:30 in the AM new years day. OUCH. that is the only sucky part. and the fact that I won't be flying back with my husband. But those two extra days are going to be so worth it.

I told my mom what I had found after I did all my research, and she was pretty much ...thrilled. So I called Delta and had them switch my ticket and yay! two more days.

just thought you all might want to know.

So I'll be in the KC from Dec 22nd about 9 PM until Jan 1st, early in the morning.

I hope you all come see me and that we can hang out. and that is snows...the end.
