Ask youself before you leave home: "Do we have all of our suitcases?

Ask yourself before you deplane: "Where is the camera?

and

"Did we leave anything under the seat?"

and

"Did we ask the flight attendnt to hold any musical instruments?"

Then, later....make sure you bathng suit to is tied securely.

and

Don't hike in flip flops and if you do

Don't grab a hold on a cactus branch to steady yourself.

And most important, don't go to Foxy's to buy Joshie a drink. It's Soggy Dollar.

That's about it!

Enjoy!

You all are so wonderful. -Makes me love life so much more!
Strangely, I look forward to my ears popping when I'm on the plane en route, then landing on STT, and smelling that hot tarmac on the way to pick up the luggage...
Time to relax those shoulders and unwind...
I'm SO JEALOUS!!!
Much love, and always-

A99, it was nice meeting you and 86 last night. You guys have a great outlook on life. Enjoy the rest of your vava and safe travels home.

(And, yes, she's as entertaining in person as she is here.)

Now I'm getting panicky

Post by mindehankins »

Blaine just called off work for the first time since I've known him (about 6 years!)! He was doing yard work yesterday and "put his back out." The last time he did this was a year ago, right before a vacation to Hilton Head and it was a MISERABLE vacation cause he was in so much pain and couldn't do anything.

The day before our last vacation (last October), I had a ministroke. I had to sign out of the hospital "against medical advise" to go on vacation.
I just feel like the Gods are against us taking a vacation and am panicking....
We NEED this vacation.
Please send some calming vibes....
