Betcha Still Wish You Were Here

~ In-laws couldn’t hack it camping and abandoned us for a hotel after the first night.
~ E slept like a log in the tent, after four hours of trying to get her down.
~ Vacationing with a kid is ridiculously different from being crazy college kids.
~ Vacationing with in-laws far surpasses the ‘kid factor’.
~ Staying in a very, very upscale condo, where the nightly rate is more than your monthly income, kinda messes with your head. Being PWT and all . . .
~ However, the poshness of marble floors, jacuzzi tubs and all around lavish luxury sure is nice.
~ In the last week, one bottle of Patron, six bottles of wine, and two carafes of sangria have been consumed. The in-laws are enablers. Major enablers. They want us liquored up so we’ll go make them more grandbabies. Sneaky, sneaky.
~ The built in babysitter factor is rockin’, even if it means some else is disciplining my child. I’ll trade two weeks of that for lounging on my ass at the pool.
That's where we messed up. Mr. Husband has created the illusion that he doesn't drink as far as his Dad and Stepmother know. So, all days spent with them are dry days. I could totally handle all the crazy if I had a daquiri or two to dull the pain.
Your are wise.
