Joanandjoe Posted November 22, 2007 Report Share Posted November 22, 2007 Things get kind of frantic when, for the second time this year, you book a cruise less than three weeks before you leave for the trip. Particularly when both Thanksgiving and Joan's birthday fall in between booking and departure. What a hectic time! Even more so if you'll be away for Chanukah, so that you want to celebrate Chanukah before you leave. So: Granted vacation time on Friday, 11/9 Booked the cruise Monday, 11/12 Booked hotel, 2 ship's excursions, and two private excursions between 11/12 and 11/21. Picked up docs yesterday, 11/21. Became SDM's today, 11/22. (We leave for the cruise on Saturday, 12/1). Picked up our younger son at the group home, then met our older son to celebrate Thanksgiving at lunch. We'll pretend that tonight is the first night of Chanukah, tomorrow night the second night, and Saturday night the third night. We'll celebrate Joan's birthday on Saturday. On Sunday, we'll take our younger son back to the group home, then we'll start to pack. Or panic. Or both Today we're doing the SDM birthday Chanukah turkey doc dance. Whew!
