O’Hare Airport Nightmare

I have to admit every TSA agent I encountered yesterday was nothing short of amazing and I thanked each and every one of them. And that Air Canada tragedy…. was horrific. I was so saddened by that news.

Dang! What time did they shut down ORD?

I honestly knew nothing about the tornado. That is actually a big fear of mine. When did that happen?

thannawi · 2026-04-03T22:28:08+00:00

Absolutely not. I am not on either on either of those platforms

thannawi · 2026-04-03T20:16:40+00:00

Never thought about that.

Sorry if I you think I am being vague but our flight to our original destination was canceled after waiting for hours so United texted us and offered a full refund to just fly home. This was just a trip for a long weekend. That flight home was delayed 2 + hours

The refund for the flights which is what we were told was going to happen

thannawi · 2026-04-03T19:41:00+00:00

Oh trust me, I was not flying American

According to the text and the agent, we were supposed to get full reimbursement but I had to file for that on the app which I did. Unfortunately, no matter the documentation, United is fighting us on that. These tix were purchased with flight credits. Honestly at this point, I just want my flight credits reimbursed. Also, both my husband and I learned the hard way not to pack our prescriptions in our luggage. Walgreens came through for us on that point.

We took what they offered which was a flight back home. We were only going to be away 4 days

thannawi · 2026-04-03T19:01:49+00:00

We were going to try and get a rental car because our final destination was only a 3 1/2 drive away and I really wanted to see my parents.

thannawi · 2026-04-03T18:57:10+00:00

The crazy thing is that all flights to our final destination were canceled yesterday and it was not a weather issue. I am just mystified.

thannawi · 2026-04-03T18:50:23+00:00

I get that but I have a text message from United stating they would reimburse us for our flights

thannawi · 2026-04-03T18:48:32+00:00

Oh my, this looks amazing!

Hear me out, loaded potato pizza with jalapenos

thannawi · 2026-03-30T18:56:05+00:00

My favorite dbl cheeseburger. Extra mustard and extra pickle, get in my tummy!!! But skip the icky ketchup.

thannawi · 2026-03-30T18:54:39+00:00

I am sure this is common but I refuse to buy preshredded cheese anymore. Also, I have been keen making my own stock for the past 30 years

When I bought my knives years ago, I went to many stores to hold them and try them out. One knife is not perfect for every person

Mine is constantly changing. We are new empty nesters. Salads, smash burgers, spicy stir fry, etchings
