Day 12

Happy Moment: Today we did our first sort of Timeshare sales meeting.  We got this card in the mail this last week saying if we went, we would get a 7 night cruise anywhere...figured it couldn't hurt to go!  We went, truly disappointed the sales people with our NO attitude (lol my arm and all its surcharges this past summer were the exact amount of the buy in, so it would have LITERALLY cost us an arm!), and got our cruise voucher.  We will see what happens but I am happy so far!  We are hoping to leave from New Orleans to the Caribbean and then when we get back from the cruise, head up to North Louisiana to visit David's family for a few days and then fly back home....two vacations for the price of one flight!  Fingers crossed that works out!  We could REALLY REALLY use a good vacation lol, but not to worry, I know from PAST experiences there is a tiny hospital located on the lowest deck of all cruise ships LOL LOL.

Happy moment two: Why do so many of my happy moments revolve around FOOD?!  I was able to eat coconut shrimp today and it didn't hurt!  The back of my throat is healing nicely and it was such a treat to eat such a yummy favorite!  Being with David all day on this fun adventure was so nice!  I learned I rate vacations in terms of importance from 1-10 as a 9 and he rates it as a 5....gotta love my shy guy!  If I could travel, with my family, all year long, I would.  I know there are some people that home school their kids in an RV and go all over the country.  This magazine writer did that and wrote about it.  That would be a DREAM for me, to stop in various towns, pick up what speech therapy jobs I could so we could eat and buy gas, and keep on traveling.  A girl can dream!  Well, off to church tomorrow...hope my left arm keeps up the marathon pace it is on.  My right arm is virtually useless at this point...no muscle tone and swollen...really hoping that means BONE growth!  We shall see!  Well I am off to dream of crystal blue waters and cruise ship delights!  Happy Saturday ALL!
