I sure hope the gods of good luck are saving everything for when we get to Vegas. We leave in approximately 15 hours and here is how the past day has gone:
1- Our 3 year old had a fever last night. She had an ear infection earlier this week and apparently the antibiotic was not doing the job. Thankfully she is doing much better now, after we made an emergency appointment today and got a stronger antibiotic.
2- Our 11 year old hurt his foot earlier this week and aggravated it today at his basketball game. He'll be ok, but we may need to take him to the docs when we get back if it is still bothering him
3- My computer monitor went dead today around 1:30. I needed it to do my early check-in for Southwest. Had to run to Staples, pick out a new one, then come home and install it. All within 90 minutes. I did managed to get A41 & A42 for our boarding pass, so the effort was worth it.
4- About an hour and a half ago, we saw small red stains on the freshly cleaned kitchen floor. My 13 year old Black Lab had broken a nail (it was halfway off) and she was limping. I had to do an emergency nail-ectomy and she is doing great. No more bleeding and she is not limping either. Our dog sitter is coming over early tomorrow and will take her to the vet if she is having any problems tomorrow. She seems fine now though.
Quite a day. Sorry to bore you all with my problems, just wanted to vent a little. If nothing further happens, I should be there with my wife in less than 21 hours. Then all of today's troubles will quickly be forgotten and our Vegas adventure will begin. Kids & pets will be with trusted people and we will be among the Vegans (or whatever they're called)
I'd also like to take the time now to thank all of you who have posted such great info over the past few months. It made planning this trip much easier than the last one. Detailed trip report will be posted within a few days after I return.
Regards,
Swanny
