Hello ladies,

I am flying today to go visit my husband in Las Vegas while he's out there on business. We thought we'd make a mini vacation out of it.

When we booked my flight, we hadn't thought of the date at all... we kept saying, "fly out on Thursday, fly home on Saturday." It never occurred to us that "Thursday" was 9-11 until a "friend" :-) of mine pointed it out to me!!! Ugh... I really wish she had not done that!!!

Anyway - if any of you are pray-ers, would you please pray for my flight. I leave at 2:30 out of NH and fly to Vegas. I do have a flight change, but I don't know where.

I'm sure I'll be fine, and dh keeps telling me that I'm probably flying on the safest day of the entire year, but I'm still nervous!

Thanks... and I'll be back on Monday!

Prayers are with you today Bethanee. I cannot seem to pull myself away from the news all morning, it is so depressing though, but I think our country has come so far since then. I agree, in my opinion, I would be a bit nervous myself (being honest) but would remember this would be one of the safest days of the year...get there really early today, I'm sure security won't be short.

Have a fun trip to Vegas and do not think about it, or you will drive yourself crazy! Enjoy the time with dh and enjoy the very hot climate.

Take care.

Thank you both!

Jackie, that's cool! We live only 5 minutes from the airport and I'm also TTC#3 and I'm on CD19! Weird.

So which direction do you live? Maybe we should get together at the mall sometime... or at a park.

Well thank you!

Your DH is right, you are flying on the safest day of the year :-) Security is going to be extremely tight since it is 911 so don't worry yourself and just relax and enjoy the rise. Think of your destination-Las Vegas, thats soo awesome.

Have fun, hope you win some big money :-)

I know what you mean. My family and I flew into Baltimore on the 6 month anniversary of 911. My son was only 7 weeks old. Security was very tight, especially in Baltimore. I almost had a nervous break down because of all the people, security, being a new mommy, etc. But, we made it through it. Everything went fine and the aniticipation is actually worse than anything. I truely believe today is the safest day to fly. Security is going to be so hiped today I don't think anything or anyone is getting through. Remember, it's mostly the news that scares everyone and they do it to get ratings. The media makes me mad, can you tell? :)
