Life is a series of ups and downs

Well...Noland came home last week...To our dismay, the people at the airlines lost his bag!! He made it all the from Amman, Jordan to Atlanta, GA only to have his bag get lost from Atlanta to Fayetteville, NC..What kind of morons do they having working?
Anyways...We go to the Baggage claim to fill out a lost luggage paer, the lady gives Noland a number to call Monday to check whether or not his bag had been found...Poor Noland...He called Monday morning after we took the girls to school, No Bag!! Ok...Fine...They tell him to call back on Tuesday...So he calls, still No Bag!! We end up having to go to the mall so that we can buy him some clothes since he didn't have anymore here at the house...Ended up paying almost $200 to replace stuff that was lost...He calls again Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, NO BAG!! They can't find it, they told Noland that he is goign to have to file a claim now...Thursday night, the girls all stayed out at his parents house and he and I went to dinner and movie..Saw "WORLD TRADE CENTER"...I cried throughout the whole movie..It was a great movie, but I won't see it again...So...Saturday we go to the Carowinds, have a BLAST!!!! Sunday he took the girls to the movies, called the airlines one more time, still NO BAGS!!!
We take him to the airport Monday morning and he gets the forms to fill out regarding his lost bag...Meanwhile, I am fuming that they lost the bag in the first place...I got a call Tuesday from the Airlines saying that they found his bag in the warehouse in Charlotte!! Woo Hoo!! The Bag is found! Too bad Noland was already on his way back to Iraq!
I will be back to write more later...Laundry is calling me...
