Random Thoughts Thursday

It is stinkin' HOT here today.

I have decided that I'm not a luxury-vacation-type person. It's driving me nuts that I have to pack so many outfits and pairs of shoes. Normally I just pack two pairs of jeans and a week's worth of t-shirts and I'm happy, but no, I have to plan for "formal night" and "dress casual night" and "daytime casual" and if it rains or if it doesn't, and if we go hiking or just sightseeing, and it's making me crazy.

Not that I don't really, really, REALLY appreciate the vacation and everything. My in-laws are being incredibly generous in taking us all on this cruise (and extremely selfless in insisting that we leave the munchkins behind), and I'm grateful and will happily pack whatever I need. But it's still making me crazy.

My mom flew in this morning and Ellie said, "Mom, you and Daddy didn't go yet. Why haven't you goed?" They can't get rid of us fast enough.

It is sooooo hot.

But by Sunday I'll be in Juneau, where it will most definitely not be this hot, so I can bear it.

Okay, back to packing. You probably won't hear from me for over a week. After the cruise, Chris and I are doing a little late anniversary celebrating in Seattle for a couple of days. Hooray for hotel club points and frequent flier miles!
