What a meanie! Of course, yes, I am only saying this because I am JEALOUS. Can I have your travel budget and annual leave please? I need to be independently wealthy!

Try independantly employed, one of the benefits is as much leave as I can take. Of course, I don't accrue annual leave!

2 trips this year without kids is as expensive as 1 trip with kids.

Hang in there! I feel as if I have been counting down forever yet I am just over a week away. The good thing about reality is that time does fly by. I will be wondering in 2 weeks from now where did the time go and you will be excited that you are two weeks closer. It will all be worth it in the end.

Marybeth, I read this earlier when I was at work and wanted to whine "mmmeeeee tooooo" but that that would be bad. Now that I know it's okay to whine, I'll just say meeeee tooo. Wah. :(
(It was a rough day at the office.)

Flip flop, I'll share my independent wealth if you share yours? First one wins! :)

RickG - My problem with independent employment is that I can't afford the health coverage! With my kids, we all know I need good INSURANCE :)

MB - We can count down together! We're close enough. Maybe we can see each other through the glass at the airport or something.

OBSESSED - I'll share with you if you'll take me on your next trip ;)

I offer great healthcare to all of my folks - 100% paid Family coverage! It's a big attraction to some of the people I hire.

And, to stay on topic, I'm meeting this morning with a client who was on VG and STT on her honeymoon while I was down. She still has her tan and I still look like Mr. SPF 30.

Cheers, Rick
