Why, oh why?

Here are some of the whys around going away for a holiday:

1)Why is it that your clothes don't fit when you wore them only 7 months ago?

2)Why are your clothes never the right ones for the occasion causing you to feel that you need to buy new ones?

3) Why do you always get a sore throat and cold just a couple of days before you leave?

4) Why is packing such a dreaded job? (Where are those little elves.)

5) Why do you feel as if your house has to be clean and in perfect order before you leave?

6) Why is it so hard to decided on how many shoes you should take and which ones are the right ones? (This is a biggy for me with my shoe fetish.)

7) Why is it that your suitcase always weighs a lb or 2 less than the maximum weight causing you to stress over how accurate your scale will be to the airport scale?

Even with all the "Whys" it is still worth all the effort for those 10 glorious days of laying on the beach, swimming in the pool and ocean, eating all day long and sleeping til your not tired.

Anon,
The reason I did´t take you is because I don´t know who you are. LOL

I do have to say it is great here and all those whys have been well worth it.

I can't believe you don't even know your own son. I'm kind of hurt here.

Anon,
I kind of figured that it was you but it gave me a great excuse as to why your not here and I didn´t have to feel guilty. Now, I´m going to have to deal with the guilt. LOL

Why oh Why did I wait and start my diet just before I left therefore I still have my rhino skin knees? Why oh Why did I hurry to shave my legs the last minute, then scraped a big line up my shin - it's bleeding and will leave a scab line so now I have to wear jeans to sunbathe on the beach. Why oh Why did I forget my new fancy, schmancy sun bonnet and then have to wear a ball cap that says - "I brake for BBQ".?? Why oh Why did a nest of pimples pop out on my chin just hours before I boarded the flight to jet outta the cold? Why oh Why oh Why??? I hear what you're saying "airingon" and I couldn't agree more.

Hey DM,
We're going to have to go holidaying together. There's comfort in numbers of those who look the same as us, dress the same as us, and are covering up those areas that are just too much for the world to see. LOL
