Yesterday evening we had to cancel our trip. We were at the doctor at 8:30 in the morning as Lori has a bad UTI. They gave her some prescriptions, but by 6pm, they weren’t kicking in yet, and she was actually feeling worse. Being the trooper she is, she didn’t let on just how bad she was feeling. As soon as I found out, (she now had a fever at 6pm), how much pain she was in, I jumped on the phone and began cancelling things.
Other than having to pack and then unpack, we’re no worse for wear. Everything was refunded and all the points from United and Marriott are back in our accounts. We have about 800,00 United points and 700,000 Marriott points to use down the road.
Lori felt horrible and is still apologizing but if you know me, I move on from things in about 5 minutes. I’m lucky in that I don’t dwell on things that happen as to me, as I see it as just part of life. If we were meant to go, we’d be on a plane. We’re not, so we we’re meant to, it’s as simple as that.
I slept in until 7 and as tired as I am, I would have had a hard time getting up at 4 to get to Denver and the airport. If Lori gets better (she’s back at the doctor today for something stronger), we might hop on a plane and go to Coeur D’Alene Idaho for a few days next week and hang out on the lake. We’re planning on going up at the end of the month, but might move that up, we’ll see.
Everyone feels so bad for us, but again, it’s not like anyone died. I feel bad for Addy who was planning on grabbing Lori for some girl time in Madrid. I’ll see James in around ten days.
Today it’s beautiful up here! Our new neighbor is having a BBQ tonight, but first, you guessed it, we’re off to the gym! Have a great day, God Bless.
