Mom is sick (we live together) and I am taking her to the dr. today and for her to agree without a fight means she is truly sick. She has been sick since Saturday and only feels a little better at this point. Now I am worrying about going away this weekend. The good thing is, my sister lives nearby (relatively) and my oldest niece comes home from school on Thursday. Mom could go stay at my sister's house, or oldest niece could stay at our place I guess. I am just feeling guilty about leaving on Friday. She might have some kind of flu. Don't think it is H1N1, no respiratory symptoms, I feel fine. Hopefully, the dr. will know what is going on and she starts to feel better by Thursday night. Pixie Dust please. I'm sure Mom doesn't want me calling her every couple of hours this weekend.

Sounds like my kind of day Anne.
I am sitting at the airport waiting for my flight to Austin. I'll check in later this afternoon. See you soon!
Here's hoping your mother gets well quickly.
Facing a similar problem here. DD21 is sick. Yep, I'm still on Tamiflu, but she has no health conditions which will get her Tamiflu (they recommend you don't use it unless you have a pre-existing health condition), so we're riding it out. And you would think that since I'm the only one leaving for this trip, that maybe someone could take care of her...but of course not.
So, we'll have to see how this progresses. She was also the one taking care of the furbabies, and again...nobody else can do this, since DS lives at school. If she is still very sick, I'll have to stay home to take care of her. She's a quick healer, though, so I'm hoping for the best.

Mindy - amber fluids sometimes help.
Everything (I think) that I'm taking is spread out all over the couch in the living room. I'm not sure how I'm going to fit it all in - it's apparent that I'm going to have to check a bag.
I have an appointment with the hairdresser tonight.
Packing will happen tomorrow after work. I'll have to go to bed early since my airport limo is coming at 5:00 a.m.on Thursday!
I'm fitting everything into a backpackThat includes my computer and DVD player. My camera bag take up more space than all my clothes.
