I've been lurking and now I am subbing right before you leave...
I would have some plans in place just in case your brother doesn't make it in time.........I think it would put your mind at ease knowing you have some alternative plans...
Perhaps call the airlines to see what happens if he misses his flight. Is there a fee to take a later flight? Is there another flight? What happens w/ Magical Express? can he just take another bus.....
I would rather know the answers to those questions before Friday. You wouldn't want your brother to be late and THEN try and figure out what to do.....
We bought Mike and Erika the refundable airfare, so if it turns out that he is going to be late or something, he can exchange his tickets for a later flight. I thought of that when I booked the trip because I didn't even know if he would be home from Africa in time! It's not really anything to panic over, I just hate it when things don't go my way!
Nikki & Amanda: Thanks for the compliments on those few pages you saw! I wish I could share the whole book with you! When we come back, I have to do a book for Mike and Erika (Merry Christmas!) and then mine and Lumar's but after that I would be willing to do your Disney books! You could send me your stuff via UPS or whatever and I could totally do them for you! Let me know if it's something you're interested in!
3 Days!!! BTW I did all of my packing last night and I started Lumar's too so I am well ahead of schedule! Just need to do some last minute shopping today!

Should I start panicking yet??
Guys, seriously, as if I am not already worrying enough (in all fairness, I did warn you all on page 1 that I am a "worrier") I just found something out about my camcorder. Remember I was going to try and record Mike's homecoming for you, and then I said I was going to record me trying to pack up the bunnies? Well I just found out that the stupid thing didn't come with a USB cable so I have no way to put my video's on my computer! I just posted a thread on the photography board, desperately seeking help, because there are like 6 different cables available and I am totall electronically clueless and have no idea what any of that technical stuff means!
I know that everything will be OK, I'm just feeling frustrated and needed to vent to the only people who won't give me a blank stare and then change the subject (at least not to my knowledge)!
ACK!!! ONE MORE DAY!!!!
I'll have an official update for you guys tomorrow night before I go to bed and then you won't hear from me again until the 14th or 15th!
Thanks for following along with me everyone! Watch for my last Pre-Trip Update tomorrow night!
