Single Parent Travel

You can tell when a kid is not ready for the weekend to be over! This afternoon, my youngest apparently fell asleep after school. I am in the kitchen making dinner (yes I do do that) and have several pots and pans going at one time. One of her friends calls and, without answering,  I [...]

I just got off the phone with my sales rep for the resort and pricing for our week has been slashed. I know it sounds like a Big Eddie stereo commercial, but no one is sure how long this price will last. Honestly, it could be gone by the end of the day, or it [...]
