I'M BAAAAAAACK!

So ladies - i am back and wait until you hear this one!

so i had a really great time with my family. . cried every time i talked to Anthony but besides that LOTS of fun times in beautiful Sicilia!

so i fly stand by since my dad works for Alitalia - yay for free tickets! so there are no seats left from Rome to Newark except 'Jump' seats ( like those the attendants sit in) so I say fine I dont care just want to get home. . . . they show me my seat and guess where it is? IN THE COCKPIT! I am the guest of the pilots i get to watch EVERY THING i was like a little kid all wide eyed!! I got to eat a first class meal. . . drink REAL coffee - T H E N the co pilot says 'there is a room for the pilots but we arent going to use it - so why dont you go in there' Me and this other lady got to SLEEP in these little bunk beds!!! i could even listen to the radio it was awesome! i got to stretch out on a BED it was soooooooo nice and THEN i got to watch the landing! it was probably the coolest thing ever!

Anyways - uncle is doing okay - minor set backs but looking good. . . he is in great spirits and even has been going to work - he is a barber but he has been going more to chat then to cut hair . . .

I had a great time I will post some pics soon!
