My World As A Flight Attendant

I love taking photos of cute stuff on the plane. They can be a topic of conversation as well. It's our pleasure to have little reindeer on our flight from Milwaukee to JFK. Our passenger told me that this is his daughter's toy.  He brings this reindeer on his trips, takes photos and sends it to his daughter and wife as soon as he lands. This is an unusual thing to do, especially from a father like him. It's impressive and I admire him.

I am a proud mom. I am showing off my new heart necklace from my son, Joshua and my new bag from my daughter, Mary.  I am grateful to have thoughtful kids; Glad to use these at work, and to say that it's a gift from them. 

Is it cold in New York? Yes, but it's way colder in Minneapolis! My second trip of the year, was with Debbie again. We love working with each other, and that is always a nice thing. We both love long layovers as well. We get to relax and enjoy the day.   I am not a big shopper, but I can be a great company.  When you have a long layover in Minneapolis, The Mall of America is a nice place to go, especially when it's cold and snowing.  When I am in Minneapolis, my memories of our training days keep coming back.

I started my new year doing something I love to do.  Working with my good friend, Debbie on my first trip of the year is a great thing. We didn't have snow in New York yet, so when we arrived in Minot, North Dakota, we both got excited seeing inches of snow. We took photo so Debbie could send it to her daughter in Maryland who is longing for a snow. Away from our family during holidays is a part of a flight attendant life, especially when we are new. This is a condition that we signed into when we got hired. We have to embrace it.  My job is a blessing.  I am grateful for it.
