Default Re: WHERE WERE YOU WHEN 911 HIT

I was home after rushing my husband to the airport while in my pjs for a trip to California. His friend did not pick him up due to oversleeping. So he was stuck in Dallas when they stopped air traffic and it took him 4 days to get home.

I was home alone watching CNN and after the first building fell, I drove to the blood bank and was giving blood while the second building fell. Odd. No one at the blood bank knew anything and could not really understand why I was crying. By the time I finished, the parking lot was full and security was directing traffic. Only thing I could think of that I could do in the Midwest.

Husband's company was fantastic. They located every employee around the world and assigned someone to call all the families where members were in travel status. Husband finally drove home from Dallas.
