Finally home!

It took FOREVER to get to Iowa on Thursday, I lost my debit card so we left 2 hours late (debit card found shortly after we left, they held it till tonight), the weather sucked, it took over 12 hours to get there.

I will post more on the hotel later - but the short version is that Ramada corporate will be getting a letter from me.

Christmas with his mom was great, I absolutely love her.  The kids had a good time, and it was wonderful.

Saturday we had a good lunch with old friends of Redneck's and his mom.  His sisters were supposed to come, and instead decided to keep us waiting around and grace us with their presence at 7 and 8 oclock, respectively.

Both girls got chemical burns from the pool - C over about 70% of her body, and B maybe 40%.  We spent last night giving them cool showers and having them lay with wet towels on their faces.  This morning B starting puking, which made for a fun trip home.

This morning we had breakfast with his mom and her bf.  We didn't leave until after 11, and it took almost 10 hours to get home.  I-80 came to a standstill, we ended up bailing off and taking county roads home. 

Re: Finally home!

  • OMG - I hope the girls are ok and I'm glad that you all got home safely!
  • Gad you made it home finally!! Also glad you guys had fun during Christmas, even if the trip was a pain.

    I hope the girls are feeling better!!

  • Wow!  T&P for your girls with those burns! OMG--sounds horrible!  And the driving...

    Glad you all made it back safely and you are lovin' your MIL!...

  • Glad you had a good time with MIL and made it home safely even if it took forever.

    That's terrible that the girls have chemical burns and are sick. I hope they feel better soon.

     

    As far as the letter to Ramada, hopefully you get your stay for free!! I sent a complaint in last year to Marriot when the front desk failed to make my wake up call causing me to miss my flight. They replied back and credited my credit card for the entire stay (2 nights).

  • Glad you got to and from safely, I wondered if you'd even be able to make the trip!  Sorry to hear about the chemical burns on your kiddos, I would call Ramada today and read them the riot act.

    Ditto! I might take them to the doctor too for documentation. That sounds absolutely miserable.

    Glad you guys had a good trip otherwise though.

  • Cripes!!  What a mess, stupid hotel pool!  I can't believe that.  Hope they feel better soon.
