It was a challenging day!  Xander was crying for me when I left, and it nearly killed me.  I cried on and off all day, between the airport and the flight.  I cried a lot of last night.  I felt a lot better this morning, but my back is still killing me from the awful plane seats!  It's a really nice place - I'm only renting a room, but I'm happy with it.

I started sneezing a few days before I left, so I knew I was getting sick.  I just realized why I'm sneezing worse than normal.  I'm allergic to dogs and cats, but after a week adjust that's why I was okay at home.  After flying for the day, now there's a dog here and I'm sneezing again!  I will be okay by next week, but it's definitely amplifying my cold!
