Feeling Better!

[sueg]

I posted my lament about our try at a last-minute trip for the weekend before Thanksgiving. DH & I were feeling sad that our attempt at being a spur-of-the-minute couple had failed. How to feel better? We forced ourselves to finalize some dates for our annual March trip. I called and got exactly what we wanted--a 2 BD lock-off for 4 days, switching to the studio for the last three days. Then I was "randomly selected" for the MS quality survey. It always amazes me that I've only been selected after an excellent MS experience. Of course, they are entitled to hear about the "practically perfect" calls, but I've never been selected when I've dealt with MS rep-from-hell or have been on hold for a LONG time. Anyway, make the March ressie did the trick. I immediately felt better, but I didn't express this to DH, until he announced this AM, that he feels better now that we have our March trip in place.

I felt bad for you when I read about your situation. But I'm glad looking to a future trip has made you feel a bit better. We were in a similar situation a few months ago. We had planned a cruise for our anniversary and out of the blue my hubby tells me he'd rather go to Hilton Head instead. He said he actually missed the DVC resort and didn't want to go a whole year and not visit. While I was thrilled that he loves our home resort, I was looking forward to the cruise as it would have been a new experience for us. Of course when I called to cancel that left us with no points to use for Hilton Head and a bunch of points in reservation status. What's a girl to do? Stay mad at her darling DH? Nope. I was able to get the member discount rate for our Hilton Head stay and will use the rs points for a possible concierge stay at the YC or I'll book a gardenview room at GF in June. So, like your situation, all's well that ends well!

Have a great trip in March.

P.S. I was missing Hilton Head too so I really am glad we're headed there next week. I'll get in that cruise one of these days. That's the beauty of DVC!
