This time next wek I'llbe there !!!!!
Mini rant ahead...
So yesterday at almost 4pm the VP of Engineering stops by and says "hey Leanne did anyone talk to you today about going to CAT next week?" I say no. He says well we need you to go up next Thursday and Friday. I immediately swell up. I say "I'm on vacation next Friday sorry". He says well we really need you to go. It has to be you. You are the only one who can sit across from Paul and make this problem go away. (This is a $147K problem one of his engineer's created and I will be going ot Peoria IL). I tell him sorry. So he says he is going to try to get it rescheduled for Wed and Thurs. Still I dont' want to go. I don't want to be stressing about this encounter before our trip. This also means I have to get everything done this weekend because I will be too tired on Friday from the 8 hour drive each way. Lindsey will have to stay with the neighbor to make school and Josie will have to stay with my folks who are more than an hour away. So much hassle.
I know I'm being a baby and it could be worse I know but it just stinks. I'm getting over it slowly but surely. Sorry for the vent...just wanted to get it out of my system.
I've got mine crossed too. I really don't want to travel this week.No freaking way, that is so unfair. It is not your problem. When will you find out?? I really hope something changes-crossing my fingers!
I didn't get near enough done but I'm still keeping my head up. I checked in online the day before going both ways and I checked the bags under me and the girls. We usually only have 2 or 3 bags so it works well. By the time I got through the line to check our bags he was right there with us. On the way back me and the girls got our luggage from baggage claim and he went and got the van. That worked out almost perfectly also.Hi Leanne,
Sorry about your work hassle. I understand about having all your planning disrupted. Our DSL hasn't worked for 4 days
and it has been raining nonstop as you know. I love the girls outfits, the Marie skirt & Tops are adorable! I have a question for you. We have never parked at BNA before. How does it work if I let Tom drop us off at the curb? Can we check him in too or do they need him there? Should we wait for him before we go to the gate? this is new to me, last year we used parking spot. Figured t would be easier to just park at the airport and less germy too
. Hope you are getting everything done
. 7 more days
!!
Us too! Can't wait!!!This time next wek I'llbe there !!!!!
I'm am really going to need this trip after this meeting. The guy I"m squaring off with is such a butthead (to put it very nicely). I'm just concerned that if it doesn't go well and the company loses 145k, I will be the one held responsible and it really isn't my project.I hate to hear that about work. I have been stressing too. Dale goes in on the Friday we leave and I worry that once he gets in they will say he can't go early. They haven't done it before, but I still stress. His boss thinks Dale eats, sleeps and breaths that place. I have been stressing about mine because on Wednesday our assistant nurse manager's husband had to have emergency double heart bypass surgery so she is out at least 6 weeks with him. I think all the stress has alot to do with why I haven't been getting over this crud so good.
I hope it all goes well at the meeting and you don't have to stay but one night. That is alot of money.
Thanks Becky!Ugggh!! I am so sorry!! That really stinks. Brent is leaving Monday morning for a conference in Kentucky (up near Louisville) and he will be there through Thursday evening. Thankfully my mother-in-law is coming up to help me get ready for our trip. (((HUGS))) Leanne!!![]()
Happy Mother's Day!!!HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Happy Mother's Day to you too! Weekend was way too short. Went to my Mom's today and spent the morning, then went to the grocery, then dinner, then the park, and now I"m catching up on the DIS while the girls are in the shower. I've gotten everything washed and folded just need to start counting and putting it into our luggage. I'm making a list of things for Joe to pick up Mon and Tuesday when he is off during the day. I still have so much to do.HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!
How is the weekend going? Start packing yet?? Whats new??
Can't wait to meet you Dana! We may be hanging out at EMH at MK too!It sounds like you had a very busy weekend. I hope all goes well with the meeting. It stinks when you have to clean up somebody elses mess.
One week from today we will be hanging out at Epcot!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Connie! I promise I will try to get that pic taken. I saw it this morning on top of Lindsey's table and I just need to take a pic of it. ONly 5 more days to go! I just keep trying to think of that and moving forward. I really, really don't want to go but I dont' see any way out at this point.Hope your mother's day was a great one!!
Sounds like you had a great day!
You have got to be having mixed emotions by now. I hope work goes well for you this week. Try not to stress too bad; just do the best you can and relax sit back and let it all fall into place. Let your confidence flow and it will flow into the negative.
Just think in 6 days you will be living in the magic
I'll be thinking about you this week and don't worry about the pic; I'll just be as surprised as Ashton. You have a great deal on your mind.
I hope I can get some stuff done too because today is all i have.I hope you are able to get some stuff done today. Thanks for the SW tips. So does your DH park in long term? Do you use the curbside check in or go inside? We will probably have 5-6 bags. But we are allowed two each so no biggie. I guess I will wait for him before we go to the gate so he can help with the carry on and kids going through the check point. Sorry for so many questions, I can be such a scatter brain lately.
I just got some excellent news and just wanted to share!
I don't have to go to Illinois this week! We are going to have a webex conference on Wed. at 2pm! I am so happy and excited!!!!!!!
