My DD7 and I had plans to join my parents and my Sis (Orlando residents) at the family's timeshare in Hilton Head, SC next Wed (they're leaving Sunday and we were going to join them Wed through Sun). We've had the reservation for one year. I was concerned about pulling my DD from school for a whole week and then for another 3 days when we go to Disney for my bday Sep 24-29 so I compromised and decided to go for 1/2 a week to SC and 1/2 to WDW. My parents called me today and asked me to go with them on Sunday due to the hurricane. I said no, that I wasn't going to leave my DH alone in danger (DH could take the days off to go to SC so that he could take the days for WDW). Well, DH says I should go and he would feel better if DD and I are away.
I'm really torn. I'm watching Ivan very closely because I'm really scared. We were lucky that we only lost power for a few hours during Frances and that we suffered no damage. My parents had just finished clearing up all the debris from Charley when Frances hit and now have had to work really hard to repair damage suffered during Frances (roof tiles, plumbing breaks, more trees down, etc). Our shutters are still up and we have no plans to take them down yet. My parents place is boarded up as well. My DH still have all the supplies from Frances that we didn't use.
What should I do? One side of me says "take your child and get the heck out1" and the other says "cancel the trip to SC and stay with your DH where you belong..." but which side is right? I'm torn and I'm scared and I'm not even sure going to SC is going to be safe anyway....
Hopefully Ivan will go away and we will be able to enjoy WDW as planned....
