Two very hungry and sleepy kids on @americanairlnes flight 1821, which departed ONT 12 hours ago. We should have arrived AVL at 10:30. Instead we’re in DFW, stuck on a plane with no gate crew. Having to pay to stay in a hotel. With Uber and Lyft rates to said hotel surging. 😡

Two very hungry and sleepy kids on @AmericanAir flight 1821. No food save a packet of pretzels in our 12 hours on this plane. We were supposed to arrive AVL at 10:30 pm. Instead, we’ve been stuck outside the gate with no gate crew at DFW for 2 hours. Do better.

Commie parents hide Harvard degrees to pose as coal miners in rural WV. Revolution doesn’t come. Kid emerges from trauma-filled childhood depressed and addicted. Parents die. Grieving 40yo orphan stares down crazy past. Finds compassion for parents and self—and healing. #PitMad

This is awesome.

Lunch.

Dinner.

Teacher in-service day = kids’ picnic at the park. (Mom squeezing in work where she can. 😉) Thanks, Mom Nature, for picnic-perfect day.
