The Trip That Almost Was...


We've rented lots of vacation spots through Craigslist, all with great success. Shane and I planned to get away this weekend to Malibu for his triathlon and just to be together. We had a place all picked out and paid for (via Craigslist). Then the owner emailed me a couple days ago to tell me (short version) that her place was no longer available and she would mail us a check. Huh? Since when does that happen? Needless to say I was bummed. No Getty Villa, no dinner at Real Food Daily, no walk along the beach at sunset...Ce la vie. We'll try again soon.

Hi Alicia! That is such a bummer! I am so sorry. I don't think I would get over that very fast. I have been craving a weekend away with Jared, so this hits close to home! You have such a great attitude. I'm sure something great is coming your way to replace your "almost trip".

Oh, that makes me so sad! I'm so sorry you missed out on a planned get-away weekend. How dissapointing!

But... I'm soo grateful to Shane for adjusting my (kinked) neck at church yesterday so I wasn't in so much pain and could function while teaching my RS lesson. Your husband ROCKS :)
