Happy thing for today...

My happy thing for today is the Southwest DING special that was posted this morning. I just booked myself a flight home this weekend for $34. All along I have been planning to go home for Labor Day weekend. I was planning on taking the www.Megabus.com which is a really inexpensive bus to Chicago and other Midwest cities. It's a five hour ride. After our trip home the other day, I was dreading the trip on the bus. But wanted to go home so I was going to do it anyway. I purchased my bus ticket yesterday for $30. So when I saw the $34 flight it didn't take much to change my mind and decide to fly! :) The bus ticket is non-refundable, but can be used as a credit toward another trip in the future. There will eventually be a time that I will be able to use it, so I'm not too worried about it. The one-hour plane ride is totally worth it. Kaiya's first plane ride -- it could be interesting! :)
