Seattle Here I come

Posted by Kat in Life

A group of Moms that I have known online and IRL for quite some time (with a vacation in the middle) are arranging a meet-up in Seattle and I’ve been given the “all clear” to go from HotHubby. This was a good thing yesterday as T called me while we were on the way home from M’s party to let me know she had commited us to the rental and she is having to send in $$. HotHubby is very happy for me, and will be keeping all three children alone when I am gone. I wonder how the house will look when I get back, but that won’t stop me from having a good time. Margueritas, anyone? I must look again to see if they have a jacuzzi. As long as I don’t come home to a positive pregnancy test like last year when I went to Dallas, I’ll be fine. LOL

Edited to add, that came out wrong. I got pregnant by HotHubby well before my last holiday, I just don’t want to be in the habit of finding out I am pregnant when I get back from a weekend alone. I do have to say that I don’t regret getting drunk in Chicago Midway as I had already been delayed a day going back to Boston because of an eastern seaboard white out. LittleMan certainly doesn’t seem any worse for the wear. Had I known I was pregnant, I obviously wouldn’t have treated myself in the airport lounge. LOL

Once we have Seattle out of the way, HotHubby and I have to decide if we want to fly the family back to Boston for a second 2006 visit, or drive to DFW to scout out the area.

    Good for HotHubby (and I must admit it is a little odd for me to write “HotHubby”) and for you. I have complete faith in him. Dad’s don’t get enough credit and I bet he is looking forward to his special weekend with the kids.

    No scouting out DFW – you can’t leave CO!

    Sounds like a fun weekend!

About Me

TeamRachel aka mrskatvon is both a website to gain public awareness of Juvenile Batten Disease (which affects my oldest daughter) as well as a journal to remember the events in our lives. Rachel was diagnosed with Batten Disease in July 2009 and while we knew something was "not right" we had no idea that such a nightmarish disease existed. There are dozens of nasty, orphan disease which affect people both very young and old. Aside from dealing with the changes of Batten Disease in my daughter, Rachel, I have tasked myself with making life memorable for all of my children to make sure that (at least) 3 of them grow up to be as well adjusted and happy as possible.
