Just walked into work, busy day ahead but then it will be all smiles.
It's funny after all the excitement when it gets close I start getting this uneasy feeling. What if..... Someone gets sick or hurt etc. what if I need to get home blah blah. I'm sure others feel this way sometimes.

Wanderlust I'm so looking forward to the cruise will definitely let you know how it goes.
Still need to pack and get my DD and DH sorted, even though they don't fly to next week. Tomorrow is hair, pedi, nails and waxing that way I'm all pretty to get into bed
5am pickup on Thursday morning

I am packing my girls clothes at the moment, but I keep getting distracted!

But I have just had a great win, the girls want to take their Cinderella and Rapunzel dresses to wear to meet the respective princesses. I managed to get two very pooffy dresses flattened like pancakes with putting them in big zip lock bags and rolling all the air out.

Right, back to it...

I get that uneasy feeling too - it's like excitement, excitement, excitement, nervousness, sure I've forgotten something, overwhelmed getting everything ready... Excitement!

Have a fantastic trip

Good job!

Oh dear, just had to pick my 7 year old up from school with a sore stomach... She has no fever, so am praying that it is nothing.

 

[heidispidi]

I hope your DD is OK Rachel. I hope she's just a bit too excited.

5 more sleeps here! Still so much to do, and yes, I too am feeling the pre-trip anxiety. I haven't written a packing list up yet! I have changed my Rainforest Cafe dinner time for next Tuesday, I have confirmed my hotel bookings... I even wasted some money yesterday on a cute carry-on bag for my daughter. But without a packing list, I'm feeling very under-prepared! Hubby is interstate for work again, so I will try and get that list done tonight.

It looks like a tummy bug , actually more worried about the other dd and myself. Hannah will more than likely be fine come Friday, but who knows if we will get it. Have been obsessively washing hands.

My husband is away too, he has been working in Nelson during the weeks for the last few months, he comes home Thursday night and we leave for the airport about 2pm Friday.

 

[Tashinwdw]

What horrible timing, Glen20 everything. I have my fingers crossed that you and your other daughter does not get it too.

I am getting the anxious before travel feeling for you guys, hate to imagine what I will be like when its that close for me to go.

So are you all finished??
Time for me to start soon....

I hope you all stay healthy and your DD picks up quickly, no time for sickness you have a date with Mickey mouse

Yep that's it, I'm getting to the overwhelmed stage about now...maybe I need to get off the Dis

Read through your tour info people! Tonight I have discovered that my Grand Canyon tour is on the day after I thought it was, and that I have booked our Warner Bros studio tour a day earlier than I thought, and seeing as we'll still be in Vegas, I kind of need to change the date!

Something tells me I might have made one too many changes to this itinerary!!!

 

[gogo65]

Oh no heidispidiI hope you can change the booking.
I think that's the worse bit, double and triple checking before you hit the pay button!
Maybe a helicopter transfer to Warner bros

 

[WanderlustNZ]

Oh no Heidispidi, that must have given you a fright. I hope you are able to change your bookings without issue.

Many years ago, pre nine eleven, I didn't double check the time of a flight and thought I had booked a pm flight not an am. I was getting ready to go to the airport, took a quick look at my tickets, and started hyperventilating when I realised my flight had left without me about 6 hours earlier.
Thank goodness it all worked out okay as my Mum rang a pilot friend who pulled some strings and got me onto his flight the next day, sitting up in the cockpit.

Even though things worked out okay, these days I do like Gogo said and I triple check everything before pushing the book button. I learnt my lesson the hard way and I would hate to ever go through that kind of panic again.

More importantly, Happy Travels everyone! I hope you all leave on your trips happy and healthy. Those nasty tummy bugs certainly have no business ruining people's much anticipated plans.

Touch wood everything is starting to look ok. Hannah woke up this morning feeling a lot better, so now it is just a big fingers crossed that no one else will get it.

Excellent!!!

I wish my ticker would hurry up and click overwish it was in Aussie time, I know it is only one more sleep!!
Woke up at 5am today, head is racing with everything I have to get done.
Next job suitcase out, I do have some piles of clothes of the floor but thats as far as I have got. Washing machine on at 6am.
Now it's time to pay the bills

 

[rachaeld]

My aim for today is to finish packing, and everything that can't go in until last minute needs to be on a list.

Tomorrow is for housework.

Friday the kids are only going to school for a half day, and we have all that time filled up with a specialist appointment for my husband, taking our dog to the kennel (1 hr drive each way) and getting some US cash.

LOL, just saw this emoticon, this has been me the last few days, although it has been wet so I have been using the dryer a bit...

I hope you can change the dates, it's so easy to get confused when you are booking so many things. *hugs*
