Made it back home about 4 pm today. To find that my husband had actually painted out living room a lovely shade of tan, the wonderful man. We've been talking about it forever - but it was a real surprise to walk into the house and see it done. :)
My Air Canada/Jazz flight was originally scheduled to leave at 11:20 am on Tuesday because I stay over an extra day to meet a voice over friend of mine - but unfortunately, due to the weather, he was unable to make it. Instead, I spent a lovely day with the folks at GaFilk that were still there, so it was still a very pleasant day. I left early this morning (was up and waiting for the shuttle around 8am) to make sure I managed to get through security in plenty of time. The airport was pretty empty. The flight left at noon instead of 11:20, but was off the ground when they said we would be (they kept us regularly updated, which I greatly appreciated).
In fact, the plane had arrived directly from Toronto, dropped off some folks, then directly boarded all us befuddled Canadians back into its loving embrace again and brought us home. ;)
So all in all, I managed to escape fairly unscathed. And I now have somewhat more reason for preferring Air Canada over other airlines (not to mention that they don't charge extra for 1 item of checked luggage).
Glad to hear that others are making it home now too!
