As an act of good faith I've decided to start packing! But tomorrow when I go see the ENT armed with my Ear Planes I just picked up from Walgreens I refuse to believe he will not declare me fit for travel. It simply cannot happen. We secured this house in Merida 3 months ago. I've imagined myself cannon balling into that pool, jumping on that bed, and belly sliding at high speed down that long length of shiny table. Surely this will not be denied me. Surely!
So I'm off to pack find my pink tankini with the halter style tie, keyhole cut-out, underwire molded cups, and flared bodice. Simultaneously, I will be working on sewing in the pages of my latest travel journal, trying on my new Pouty Mouth lipstick, looking for my red funglasses, and packing my ultra attractive travel hat which was featured in a post earlier in the week. I will not be drinking any more espresso martinis. I won't!





























Somehow I missed a couple of days! How did this happen? Did I have a blackout? Your ear! Your cat!
I will keep my fingers crossed that you will be all healed - those photos of Merida must become reality, and you must slide down that table wearing your pink tankini and red sunglasses.

Way to go Mary Ann...think positively. With views of that house and that pink tankini - nothing can stop you now!
Have fun!

Keeping my fingers and toes crossed (in spite of the increased risk of severe foot cramps!) that you will be able to go on your trip. You so deserve to spend time in that pool!!

Am keeping my fingers crossed.
How is Wyatt Earp doing?

Espresso martinis? Yes I think you need more stimulant. You MUST gear yourself up and get just a bit more excited for the trip.

Please put cushions on the floor at the bottom of the table in case you slide right off the end. Hope you will get the all clear to go on your vacation and you will have a brilliant time

ooh, yes, lots and lots of margaritas when you get there, since I want you to have one for me and I know others in the group will feel the same way. Have a GREAT time!!

Think of me while table sliding.
Thanks.

Wishing you can make this trip to Merida, you deserve a rest. In a good restaurant try the "cochinita pibil", you will love it.

Since you didn't post I am assuming you got to go. Have fun. All of us poor people will still be here when you get back. Who has time to go anywhere anyhow - we've got pages to sew!!
