just started vacation with the family
Me, my girlfriend, mom, dad, sister, brother in law, three kiddies. In Orlando, in the rain, for a week.
I have no money.
And we are staying in a two unit town house - two front doors, four bedrooms.
It has already been a horror, and I am barely off the plane.

Talk about not getting your pony. I can complain about anything i guess

1. My dear mdmc...
You have my complete sympathies! And yes, you have the right to complain about anything...

I hope the rain will stop and you can get outside to at least walk around and see the sights, if there are any.

Hang in there!

:hug:

4. it is all what you make of it
your situation sounds like super fun to me..... The three kiddies (whether they are yours or your sibling's) are gonna be grown and gone before you know it - have fun and enjoy them. And... with every year that goes by, your parents will age and have health issues... your on a family vaca... freakin' enjoy that everyone is here - enjoy them - forgive them for anything that might annoy you - just enjoy that at this point in time you are all together on this earth at this point in time and make the best of it. breathe, relax and enjoy.... it's a memory and it can be a fantastic one... it is up to you... do you dwell on little things or laugh at them and realize they can be funny stories 20 years from now?
