The time has come, I'm in tears, we will shut the daycare down next week I suppose.  I can't stand the idea of it at all.  It hurts me.  My gut hurts me.  I don't want to do it.  I don't want to lose what I have put into it, not just monetarily but emotionally, physically, overall, my life has revolved around that daycare for 18 months and now what? 

Well, Vegas, that's what.  No for real, I am so not kidding.  we've been planning a vacation for quite some time now and we are going to get to take a vacation with our kids and go to the beach but get this, mom and d

ad are getting a vacation too.  We, we are going somewhere just for the adults.  What it reminds me of mostly is when we were single and we would start talking on Friday morning about where we might go for the weekend.  Back then we lived in Central Florida and not really close to an airport that would get us where we would want to go without a lot of hassle.

But, now, now we are tossing around all kinds of places to visit.  My goal is to plan a little better than just crawling out of bed on Friday morning and saying, "hey baby, wanna go to Vegas tonight?" and the reason is, I want to have a good time, but we are not filthy wealthy.  And, I want to get a heads up on some good vegas hotels and other great places that we would want to visit within walking distance of the hotels we choose.  I mean really, don't you folks think we deserve a vacation?
