Thursday, June 1Happy Mothers and Children’s Day!! I got a bunch of emails today saying that Erika’s flight from Beijing took off and then turned around and landed again because of mechanical problems. And so her flight out of Beijing was about 4 ½ hours late! So of course she was going to miss her connecting flight out of Chicago. Erika’s parents found this out before she even landed in Chicago, and so they had quite a time trying to find out if she could make the last flight out to Atlanta at about 9:30pm. The agents kept on saying either yes or no she could not. They were not giving any sure answers. So just in case she was not able to make that flight my mom was able to get a hold of Amy, my friend that works at IBLP HQ. She and another girl were on call to take Erika to HQ to spend the night (thank you Amy!:-). It ended up that Erika was able to catch the next flight. It was so close though, that her luggage did not make it on the flight, but had to be delivered the next day. We spent time this afternoon preparing for the Expo and MIU quizzes tomorrow. Erin and I spent the morning figuring out the best curtains to put up in our apartment, and then putting them up. The curtain rods do not always fit the style of curtains that we have and so it took awhile to get those up. Then we were able to do other household chores.
