Life in the Fast Lane

Or not.

We're getting ready for a big week around here: Hans's trip to Costa Rica.  Hans prefers I travel at the same time so he doesn't have any extra days away from us.  Right now, the plan is we drop Hans off at the airport Sunday night (the 15th) and continue on to Portland.  Oh, this is all after dropping Harvey off at Critter Sitters to be boarded while we're away.  We'll stay the night in Portland and Abby & I will fly to Tucson on Monday the 16th.  Not sure how long we'd be there.  Not sure how long we're wanted.  Hans returns to Seattle on the 22nd at 11:20 AM.  I'm betting he'd like us there to pick him up.  Well...I could have Mom meet him with Eli and Hazel...or not.  I'll probably make Hans just take the shuttle home.  Not sure how all this is going to work out.  Seemed so simple when it was something way off in the planning.  Now that things are coming up, it's so much harder to figure out details.  Maybe I'm just not that into the details?  Two annoyances that have cropped up: Tuesday, May 17, is my last MOPS meeting and it's the children's rescheduled spring class photo day.  Trying to figure how all that will fit in to the scheme of things...  So far I've phoned the school to get the permission forms for the kids to miss so much school not due to illness or family emergency and to sort out what to do about the pictures (which were to be on May 3, but had to be rescheduled due to the MSP testing).  Hazel's starting antibiotics for an ear infection today...I'm on antibiotics for a sinus infection...we're such a fun bunch right now.
