Dear Di.

It makes sense to me that you plan one or two excursions now. You can decide later if you want other excursions once you get on the ship.~~ kind of play it by ear so you can choose to rest if you want.

Dear Di,

Good luck on taking care of your house, your family, your trip, your packing, . . .

'Sorry that you have pain. Take care of yourself.

Aw dear Di !!!!

I felt so excited since I reaad this !!! I feel like Im going with you !!! I have never been into a cruise, but would love to !!! Im sure you will have a great time and will take wonderful photos I will then enjoy !!

Aw, Im sure you will enjoy it... dont know about you, but for me, water is so relaxing !!! even a small pond... haha just imagine the sea... the sky... aw ! wonderful landscapes Im sure !!!

Enjoy it since the moment when you start to pack.... I too stress ALWAYS before a trip, but that is silly, we should enjoy everything, even the bad/odd/funny/unconfortable things... it is HOLIDAY !

Will be thinking about you and family. Everything will be alright. You enjoy !!

Love you lots,
Blue.

So the ups and downs
Good signs and ugh
dd still has a portfolio and final exam in Algebra and is not at all recalling. I am no help and she may not pass.

Work has been crazy, I had assignments everyday this week, plus preparing my son to cover what he can while I am gone. He would love the income and keep from hiring someone in our area.

Mari, got the excursions out of the way. I booked a bus trip to the beach and one for tour around the island.One day we will play as it goes.

As far as DH, we were walking through the store, picking out some clothes for him, found out his waist went up not by 2" but 4". So he got pants, shorts, an added top, sneakers...There are still shirts from last years trip we never got to take.
Pinched my butt as we were walking through the store.

I drove out on a claim myself, got back and now two days I can not walk without excurtiating pain, the back, hips, legs, butt. My pcp is still gone. My only resort is the ER tomorrow for shots for flare, and spasms.

ds is taking an assignment 3 hr drive each way because I can't, I just can't. But the man never called me back to set the appointment. He needs to know how to do the paper work and internet file uploads.

dd is all packed last night. I have to iron shirts, taking a steamer for the pants, little hand held one.

I am excited, I should be thrilled, now I wish there were two more weeks until I go.
Off to do the bathrooms, and kitchen floor before I get to bed.
I took pain meds this week, nothing is helping.
Has to be a priority. Maybe early AM.

Dear Di,

Your plans for getting ready to travel are falling into place.

I hope that the mdoc can help with your pain issues.

every thing is fall,ing into place

Have a great time. Sending many hugs.

Dear Di,

I hope you can get those injections so your back feels better and you can really enjoy your trip.

You sound stressed out (the vacation will help)! Please try to be good to yourself... and take a little time out to relax.

All the doc's and specialist I see, not one to get the injections. Unless I go to ER, I hate to do that. Going to see if I can get a massage at the chiro.

I have not even packed our things, well except dd. I have another insurance call 2 hrs away tomorrow morning.
Need to get litter, another box, and food for the cats. My son will be up to care for them.

dgs says, I will miss you mamma. I will miss him too. He asked me when his vacation is, gotta love them. I am going to save for a Disney trip for him.

I am finishing laundry, will iron tomorrow. Went to the bank, need to refill one of my meds...the pain one of course...
Also have to get the camcorder back I lent out for graduation.
Should make a list....
thanks for getting me to the finish line..D-day just hrs away now.
If I don't get back on tomorrow night, have a great week all, hugs and stay well.

Have a Great Trip, Di!
