First and foremost, I was brought up to believe laughter is the best medicine in life, to only worry about the things you can control, and take a deep breath because there is always someone somewhere less fortunate than oneself.
Like so many wonderful dis'ers, I have been planning our vacation for months. I'm also scheduled to fly out this coming Saturday morning, have ressie for CRT @ 1pm that day, Have a castle cake ordered for Sunday for our DD birthday at 1900 Park Fare, ressies for Sci-Fi and MNSSHP for that very night. Everything planned out to the "T" for the entire 5 days at Disney, An awesome price on an SUV (thanks mousesavers), 5 days at Universal, Arabian Knights Dinner show, ZOO BOO in Tampa, A picnic on the beach, The big Party in Tampa on Oct. 30, and Trick or Treating in Zephyrhills while visiting a long last High school friend I haven't seen in 20 years. Life is good!
This Morning, like so many of my friends here, we awaken to WILMA. My attitude, I can't control the weather so don't worry...just work all day to set a different plan in motion. I call Disney(Who was trying to be so helpful), rental car agency(I'm not sure they still understand what I was asking them to do) and the airline(Whom I couldn't understand from the language differences and I called back 6 times trying with all my heart to get someone who I could understand what they were saying...I finally gave up) to find out procedures of cancellations, possibling adding on a day or two before the hurricane, booking a room etc. Nothing available. Not a problem...I can't control it. As Long as I'm not stuck in CMH for two days trying to get to Florida, I don't care. Let me just make it to Florida, and if Wilma wants to try to blow me back up north, she can, but I can be very stubborn and put up a good fight! I will hand cuff myself to a post buried 16ft in the ground at Disney to make sure she doesn't win...lol
Then at 4pm today, one of my employees quit today and put me short handed with no worker 4 days while I am gone(not my problem...I am on Vacation), the sitter for our beloved dog cancelled so Chester has no one to watch him(I wonder if Peirre our siamese cat will mind watching Chester???), I locked myself out of the house(I never really liked that front door anyway, so don't mind replacing it), my beautician was scissor happy for the first time( I guess I don't look to bad in shorter hair and it will be so much easier to take care of while I am in FL), I was so preoccupied with trying to change all my ressies, I burned supper(COOL hubby ordered out and even cleaned up the kitchen) and last but not least, lost a set in my wedding band(Hubby said mmmmmm now I know what to get you for your Birthday and Christmas...OH YEA!!!)
I took this entire day in stride, didn't freak out, get gumpy, complain or cry until just now...
DANG IT I BROKE A NAIL!!!!
I cried like a baby!!! Hubby is laughing his butt off, My 4yo DD was patting me on the back saying it's ok momma, and DS....found my nail and brought me his model plane glue trying to hide his smirk.
Somedays it just doesn't pay to get out of bed!
