17 Days and Counting...

I remember thinking once, time was going so slow.... now it is just flying by. It only seems like last week we dropped Ross and Lesley down at the wharf for them to start their 35 Day Hawaii Cruise, and here we are, next week we will be heading down to pick them up... I think we have been to Wharf 5 that many times lately that they actually have a special parking spot reserved for us...
Our calendar is filling up quickly with family do’s and catching up with friends before we leave... Of course there is the shopping ... all over the house you will find bits and pieces of “I think we will need that for the cruise”....
We have our little portable Pharmacy with medical supplies for all illnesses ... and we have been jabbed with Flu, Typhoid, Tetanus and Hepatitis injections... better to be safe than sorry....
I have been finalizing all the private tours we have planned and have my envelopes at the ready with all the information printed off and placed inside... and that is not to mention the various spread sheets spelling out what we are going to do and where..
It is really starting to hit home that we will be leaving the Girls behind to fend for themselves, the grown up ones will cope but when I look into my littlest one’s eyes it makes me a little teary.... My little baby is going to miss her daily cuddles from mum .. Though the grown up ones like it as she pays them more attention...

  1. My furry little baby has to go to a kennel for 2 months, she will hate me when I get back.
    She sleeps in my bed with me now and has me all to herself, I just hope they give her extra attention at the kennel :(

How exciting..and I am so envious of your skills in getting the blog done so well...I am trying to get one happening...I love the calendar, and I notice we will be in LA at the same time...If I can find the wharf we may come and wave to you !! LOL !! We have a separation anxiety also, ours is a little Cavalier, but she will fly to Melbourne for a holiday with her nanna (my mum) I will miss her terribly. Keep well ! Cheers Kris
