Fresh Start

After changing a taxi tire, an hour long crying fest at the delta ticket counter, forking over $340 for my luggage that was suppose to be free and a two and a half hour flight, 4 hours of unpacking and 5 hours of sleep... I MADE IT- made it home and made through my first day of my new adventure!

All the drama of yesterday is over with. Yes, I will be writing to Delta telling them they need to change their website to be more clear. No, I was not planning on spending $340 dollars for my 2 under 70lbs bags- nor was I aware that they were clarified as over weight, because Skymiles Medallion members are allowed 2 bags up to 70lbs for free- and my ticket was booked under a Skymiles Medallion member number, but apparently, the memeber has to be traveling in the same reservation. None of this explained clearly on their website. If Delta wants to avoid complications with travelers, they should explain themselves clearly. They have a new advertising campaign out now that focuses on how Delta employees are what make the company, that their employees know how to 'put themselves on the other side of the counter.' Well, I would like to say- sorry Delta, your LGA employees have no clue what it's like to be on the other side of the counter. Neither do they care about customer service or how they make their customers feel. I am not the type of person to show up to the airport with 2 over sized bags and pay $340- if I would have known it was going to cost that much, I would have shipped more stuff and had my suitcases weigh less than 50lbs, like normal travelers.

It does not matter anymore, because I made it back to Atlanta. But if you happen to know someone who works at Delta, or you work at Delta- tell them to watch out for my angry letter. It is coming- and I will try everything in my power to get their website changed- just on principal.

But anyways, just typical that this would happen to me. I should have known when my taxi ride to the airport showed up with a flat tire that day that my travels would not be easy. Yet again, my life never ceases to amaze me.

Now that I have been home for 24 hours, I have finally unpacked all of my things into my new room in my basement and haven't felt this relaxed in 6 months. I really feel like I am happier just being here. And now I can finally say, with full confidence, that I made the right decision. I listened to my gut and that gut feeling was the best for me to follow. No mater what happens from here on out, I can say that moving back here was the best decision for me- I did what makes me happy. And even in 24 hours, I have felt a turn around.

Lesson Learned:

Find what makes you happy- and if your gut grumbles to tell you something- follow it.

Peace, Love and full nights of sleep,

B
