After a transatlantic flight from Tel Aviv, we landed at JFK. I would've been stuck in New York for a few hours, but an American Airlines agent suggested the three of us Dallasites on the trip catch a cab over to LaGuardia and get an earlier direct flight to Dallas. (This instead of a three-hour layover followed by a flight to Dallas through North Carolina with another layover.)

I am finally home. But when I got here, I was so tired that I had chills. So I went straight to bed and slept for two hours. It's been great to hug my sweet family again...and find horizontal sleeping arrangements. Getting adjusted to Central Time is secondary!
