One Long Night

So, I'm a worrier, I'll just put that out there from the start. Well, Monika was supposed to land in Korea about 2:00 PM our time yesterday afternoon. She hadn't called, so we figure, oh she's busy going through customs, tracking down luggage, finding her dog who also made the flight. Well, never heard from her. My mom was so calm through all of it, I don't know how she did it! Anyway, I was up all night long, sick to my stomach and couldn't sleep! I called my mom like 3 times and she tried to calm me down. She said, we would have heard something if something was wrong. Well, I prayed to remain calm, and it helped a bit, and I would fall asleep for like 30 minutes, then wake up worrying again! My stomach is in knots, can we say ulcer here we come to Michelle? Anyway, I wake up at 3:30, my usual time to get ready for work, and take a quick shower and head to my mom and dad's to drop Lucky off to the babysitters (his grandparents), yes we do that every day too, he's spoiled. I pull up and my mom is finally talking to Monika! I started bawling! I'm so glad that she made it and can be with her husband, but I already miss her. She said they didn't get a phone and they had to go buy groceries, pillows, and blankets (it's really cold there), and just finally got to her new apartment. She said that she has a pink toilet and sink, can't wait to see those pictures. So, needless to say, Wednesday is going to be one long day. I have an hour of sleep, a headache, and a stomach ache, but I'm grateful that Monika made it safely to Korea. Monika, I miss you! Love ya!
