Well, I have officially cancelled my Dec, trip to NYC. Besides the cat sitting issue, after I booked the trip I found out I was going to miss an all america concert band concert. then I found out I'm going to miss a flute choir performance and they don't have another alto flute available that day. And since the scam artist imm. lawyer near here died, I'm starting to get flooded with people at work who need help. So, I'm going to put the trip off until January or February. My stress level really went down just knowing I can still do the things I want to.
