PLANS - YIKES




My mother is nuts...I have seen more and more this year where I get it! She has started planning our next trip as a family. We will be heading to the beautiful Cabo San Lucas, Mexico in late September or early October. Now we just have to figure out where we will be staying without causing my mother to have a complete breakdown! She owns a timeshare, my grandma owns a timeshare, the problem is they are completely different ones! My grandma informed my mother yesterday that she wouldn't be going anywhere if she wasn't using her weeks, therefore my mother began freaking out because if we all have to use grandma's than no one will vacation with mom! This is my mother being completely irrational! I, of course, will vacation with whomever, wherever!!! Evidently, I am not enough! Lets also talk discuss the use of the word "we" when talking about planning the vacation...Notice I said something about my mom planning our vacation, well this is never really the case! So who ends up really planning the vacation?!? That would be moi! After mom comes up with the initial idea, she then somehow conveniently freaks out and can't handle it anymore. Evidently because we all are people that can't commit to anything. PLEASE!!! I will commit to a vacation without even thinking about it first, now the others are a different story, but I did have to explain to her that my aunts at least have to look at their schedules! However, I have absolutely no excuses for my fabulous grandmother...after all she is retired, she should be able to go whenever she gets an itch! Although, she is contemplative and always has been...she all about the long pauses!!! I apologize if this entry was not quite clear and concise...but I am not in that sort of place at the moment!

It isn't Mom with the scheduling conflicts...it's Dad. He can't go if he is still mowing. I can't take this crap...I'm like your mom in one way...I don't want to deal with the planning phase and all the back and forth crap...just give me a date and if I can make it, I will be there! I WILL be there too, no matter if Mike can go or not. I already told him as much. So, this place looks good to me...I understand the problem with the timeshares though. Mom said she is still working on it. Good luck to you all, just let me know where I'm going and when I'm going when you all figure it out!

Everything I've found so far has been right around $600. I just wanted to make sure that wasn't high. When are you guys going to get your tickets?

Mike wants to go so we need the room. Tell me how much it is and when I need to pay for it.

I love Mexico! No matter what, in the end all the little details will be worth it. I'm jealous!
