Count Down!

Counting down to Maui! A week from now I will be settling in at the Weissenbachs for the night before our big trip - very excited! We are going zip lining, on a helicopter tour, on a dinner cruise, hopefully to watch the sunrise over the volcano (currently closed to visitors because of the government shut down) and hours and hours of lounging on the beaches of Hawaii. I'm going fat, but I'm going!

I am also going to see Wicked at the Music Hall before we leave. Very excited about it, even though Shawn is less than pleased. It's on a Tuesday and God forbid we do something on a Tuesday evening. I will need to make it a point to do the driving so he won't have as much to fuss about. I've been wanting to see this show since I first heard of it years ago. (If Shawn backs out he will ruin yet another Hawaiian trip for me, too.)

Expecting a few packages with Christmas gifts any day now. What is it about October that has me spending, spending, spending? I do it every year. Guess with Christmas around the corner, vacation and pet wellness visits, it puts me in a spending mood. I will have to pay the piper (and the credit cards) in November and December (and January and February!) Oh, well.
