I feel the same way, but if we're using local time, I would set the bar at about 2 pm.

It's 11am here and I've been up since 6:30. Every Tuesday this month I've been getting up early! Today is to receive a hospital bed for my grandfather, who is coming home this evening. The delivery window was 9am-noon and I'm still waiting.
After this I will go home and take a nap, go to the hospital for a bit, and then attend class tonight.

Good afternoon! Things are somewhat surreal in London. Thankfully, we finally got my daughter evacuated. Both of the charter flights for them (Peace Corps) failed to arrive over the past two days. Thankfully, we got permission and were able to get her on the (very infrequent) last nonstop flight out this morning. All the best, since the charter was going to take them back to Washington, DC and then she would have had to fly back to LHR.
I guess, one day at a time. But, most of us are together.

Thanks for the kind wishes. It's just about 1pm and there's still no bed.
I just saw your post... very happy she made it out!

Is anyone in this thread still traveling?
FL governor closed all bars and nightclubs at 5pm today and restaurants are only allowed 50% capacity.
Beaches are at the discretion of the county but am sure if too many violate the 10 max rule they will be closed as well.

saw something in my newsfeed a couple hours ago that KLM is accelerating the retirement of their last 744s from next year to the end of this month ... will try to find the link

I understand but we miss you around here.
BTW, where was the daughter? I seem to have missed some earlier post......and I assume that trying to go first to the USA and then to the UK could have been a real mess with travel bans starting.
