I'll try to make this shorter then. We've had a change in plans & I'm trying to deal with it. We were going to pay for the trip today with DH's commission check, but his check was $3K less than anticipated (ouch), and then we also need to pay for a new air conditioner-central air (ouch) ... so rather than put undue stress on ourselves by trying to pay the balance by Oct. 4th ... we're postponing the trip until Spring 2008. We'll be going March 28-April 4th.
We don't put stuff on credit, because of DH's highly fluctuating income ... we could get into trouble REALLY quick if we racked up c.c. debt. We've BTDT already, don't want to go there again. So we'll go in 2008 with a clear conscience, ready to play hard, as we love to do. I just have to break the news to our 11 yr old today, who doesn't do well with transitions/plan changes. Wish me luck & lots of pixie dust!!!! |
Thats a real bummer, so sorry you have to postpone.
But, I know how you feel about the stress of putting things on a CC.
You are much better off, and will feel more relaxed about going in the Spring without a debt to pay when you get back.
Good luck in telling your kids, maybe you can offer something special for the Spring trip. (Character breakfast, Disney Dollars, etc.) Just a thought.
