Gearing up for our non-Vacation


The time has come the walrus said, to think of many things...  but first we must have a situation.  Myles comes home from school a couple days ago with a crazy high fever.  From there, we start our fever and  sicky pants regime.  His cold is still slightly lingering as our flights out of the UAE are set for travel.  Now, I am sick, Liam is sick and Sienna is having a bizarre dental emergency.  She has been to the Dentist already and has some very weird abscess in the back of her mouth.  Well now, she just has a crater size hole waiting for a tooth extraction or something else and we are doing a compression and salt water routine for the next couple days, per Doctor.  While at the Dentist office, he went ahead and pulled out her second bottom tooth.  So, we had an unexpected Tooth Fairy visit last night.  Luckily she got the memo and paid Sienna in American currency.  The Dentist wanted to see her in four days.  Well, we will be in the States by then.  Go figure.  Now, added to our non-Vacation will be some high maintenance dental work on our 5 year old. 

Let me just give you a run down...  I am flying across the World again with all three kidlets, alone.  Dave will be staying here for the next four weeks to finish his course.  I am working some angles here and may find a way to a mini vacation with the girls.  Dave will join us at the end of July.  I can just imagine my flight already and HIS.  Anyhow, then we will visit his Mom, his Dad, drive all the way to California to visit my Mom and Dad, then head back through Las Vegas to visit some dear friends, Mark and Tonya.  As a bonus, we will be in Las Vegas for the Vegas to Reno kick-off.   We will return the motorhome to it's lovely cubby and hop a flight back to the other side of the World.  For those of us less logistically inclined, my Husband has taken it upon himself to do the math in mileage per Garmin and Google Earth; 2400 miles of driving, 24,000 miles of flying.
