Denise, you are not along. Sam has bad dreams at least once a week that have her crawling into bed between DH and myself. She won't tell us what they are though, she says they scare her too much to talk about.

I think some must be about tornadoes. Poor kid is just phobic about them. We are in an area that can get them but our specific part of the area rarely does. I think the last one within 20 miles was over 30 years ago so it isn't like she has ever seen one and that is why she is scared. I don't understand it and we have tried to explain all this to her but no deal, she is still terrified of even the thought of tornadoes. Poor kid. So I think they figure in her bad dreams fairly often.
I am bummed. I keep trying to check out that webcam in Norfolk to see the Magic and it is always dark (maybe because I can only check in the early morning and don't remember until late evening). Maybe I will try this afternoon. I just want to see her. Our cruise is still WAAAAAAAY too far away for me to be happy about it

So I guess I have to concentrate on our spring trip, but that is still almost half a year from now!!!
Oh well.... NYC at Thanksgiving is the next trip and then nothing until spring. I just reserved us a 12 passenger van. That should do for 5 adults, 2 kids, a wheelchair, two coolers of food, cooking utensils, spices, food, clothing, etc for the long weekend. We are staying in two apartments right next to the Empire State Building and will not have anywhere nearby to get groceries (I checked when there in September) so we have to bring all that with us. At least it is cheaper than eating out, though there is a wonderful restaurant right downstairs. mmmm
Oh well, back to work....
