Matt's 18th Birthday trip - Now Live

[jtlover]

11 weeks 3 days.

Before this trip I had a few health issues, the first few days of the trip I struggled with pains I had been getting, the past 3 weeks hardly any problems at all, the specialist did suggest it was stress related but I didn't believe him, I am not sure now. I just have no idea where the stress is coming from if thats the problem.
I have a colonoscopy booked for Tuesday then an ultrasound on my Gallbladder next week, if they are OK I guess I might have to accept it is stress, maybe ask for holidays to Florida on the NHS
Off to the rugby now to try keep me awake.

Stress is a really strange thing as it brings it out in different ways for everyone.

I can't think of 1 thing in life that I would be stressed about. Maybe I have something there in the back of my mind (Matt getting his results and starting Uni is the only thing I can possibly think of) but I lead a pretty unstressed life.

We fly out 31st Oct for 10 days, I think there will be quite a few of us out there then.

welcome home Wayne!!
maybe you were stressed about the trip? Maybe you're catching my fear of flying? i stress out before the trip just because of the flight!!

Welcome home! I don't envy you having a colonoscopy!

Welcome home! I don't envy you having a colonoscopy!

11 weeks 3 days - how fabulous

Hope you get your health issues sorted out. We run our own business and although like you, I don't consider myself to be overly stressed when I step out of the airport and feel the sun shine I just feel 'lighter', like a weight has been lifted . I am very lucky in that my DH bears the brunt of our major work stresses but he seems to take it all in his stride and takes any excess out on his martial arts partner!!!

Hope you manage to bag a Florida hol on the NHS

Take care.

Hope you had a great few last days, And had a smooth flight home

eek Wayne - sorry to hear about the health issues, I hope that everything works out after the tests and maybe given that you don't usually have any stresses in your life, Matt's results and Uni are taking it's toll whilst little stress to some it could be escalated for you given that you don't usually feel stressed.

Enjoy the rugby.

Yup I'm in Disney again 3rd to 17th - although for work (I'm sure there will be some play) from the 11th!

Deffo a popular time!

Breaking cover to post to say how much I've enjoyed Wayne's trip report and Matt's blog. I have pm'd Wayne a few times and today said I was embarrassed to post after not posting for so long and he told me not to be silly, well not quite those words

Had a 10 day trip in May with my 21 year old daughter, she was desperate to be able to drink, wasn't so keen after a couple of cocktails in Mexico in the heat then puking up in the toilets on the way out of Epcot

Matt got a bit of stick from the servers this trip, knowing it was his 18th and coming from a country where he could legally drink, they found it very amusing he was over there. One server offered to turn a blind eye if he had a sip of mine(I think he was joking) Thankfully Matt has no interest in alcohol yet, I was just the same at his age, I am sure University life will change him, although his 2nd year will hopefully be North Carolina, Chapel Hill Uni. Maybe he should just wait until he is 21 to start.

in florida, parents are permitted to allow their underage children to drink alcohol for religious practices...
so you could always claim that when you allowed him to drink from your drink it was for religious reasons!

Thanks for trip updates Wayne & Matt... Excellent as always...
Only 7 days now to our Florida Holiday can't wait.... )

Welcome home Wayne and family Wayne hope you stay in good health ready for your next trip

 

[rachelanne]

Welcome home, and thanks for sharing such a special trip, yours and Mathew's daily dose of Florida Magic have been something to look forward to each day, smiling at the computer, i've had my share of funny looks from the other half!
Also well done for getting checked out with your health, I think its all too easy to just ignore things, best wishes for speedy outcome, just be thankful I dont start recommending my home made cures on you!

Welcome home Wayne. A pity we were home a couple of days before your Dismeet. It would have been good to finally meet you. I had kept my eyes open in the hoping of seeing you guys - pretty sure i would have recognised you - but it wasn't to be.
