Vacation from my Vacation


We are back from a little weekend getaway of sorts, to a nearby resort where we had plans of 2 nights and 3 days filled with swimming, eating, and family fun. Here's how it really went.

Upon arriving, I realized I left a small piece of equipment that goes with my insulin pump at home. A piece that is critical for me to go swimming. Good gravy. Jason spent the first night driving ALL the way home and back to retrieve it, about 2 hours round trip. I wanted to be the one to go get it, but he wouldn't let me.

Cooper woke up during night #1 with a slight fever. He spent the rest of the trip fussy, warm, and with no appetite.

You know it's sad when you ask the whole family: "What was your favorite part of Toy Story 3?" and your husband answers, "The part where Cooper got through the entire movie without throwing up!"

I came home to a phone message that the husband of my dear friend had passed away.

It's going to be rough around here for a little while.

Ah man, I'm sorry. I hate when you get let down because of things not going as planned. You should definitely take a vacation from your vacation.
