Woot!

I just paid off our vacation, 45 day mark. YAY! I don't know, I'm strangely not all that excited, not nearly as much as I was last May or in 2008. Maybe it's because this is the first vacation there kid-less since 2000. I think I might be feeling a little guilty that we're going alone. But then I tell myself that we deserve to have a vacation without daughters or grandchildren, that for four whole days we can do what we want without having to consider what anyone else wants. But I know I'm going to feel sad when we're watching "Wishes", remembering how lovely it was with Lauren. *sigh* DH is completely unconcerned and not feeling any guilt whatsoever. Does anyone else feel selfish about not including others in their plans for a vacation?

NEVER! We almost always travel alone (kids are grown) and love it!

Have a magical trip. Next time you can bring them but this time enjoy and have a romantic trip and see Disney in a different way w/o kids.

I'm sure I'll get over it...we really haven't gone anywhere alone in such a long time, it's just different, I guess.

Thanks. There is one thing I'm looking forward to (well, lots more than one, actually), not waiting in line for Dumbo!

I know exactly how you feel. As I did something similar - I went with my sister over the labor day, without my kids ! My kids still don't know I went without them, since I thought they would be upset - but let me tell you that I had absolutely the best trip ever!!! Everything was so great! We were like 2 big kids (ok 50 something big kids ) and it was amazing. All my planning paid off big - since we got to do almost everything we wanted. We did the GF Tea, the Wishes Dessert Party, the MNSSHP, got free dining, got an upgrade from Pop to OKW, even got a deal on the car rental!!!! The whole time we were walking on air. I will remember this trip my whole life!!! I wish you the same!!! Enjoy this trip and make the most of it. Hopefully you'll have other opportunities with your kids for future trips - but this one is for you.

YAY for paid off trips! Thanks, I hope your vacation is terrific. I did so much extensive planning for last May's vacation that this one coming up is a piece of cake, just a few minor adjustments.

Thank you. I just have to get myself out of Mom/Nana mode and I'll be fine. I'm happy for you that you had such a fabulous time!
