I Think We Forgot Something

Yesterday I drove about 2 hours through stormy weather and pouring rain to meet my brother-in-law and my niece in order to drop off my kids. The kids are planning to spend a couple of days with their cousins before going to LTC on Friday.

When we got close to Greenville (the halfway/drop-off) point, I suddenly realized we had forgotten something. "Kids." "Yes, Daddy!" "Where are your suitcases?" "Aren't they in the trunk?" Yes, we forgot the suitcases...they are sitting in the middle of the living room floor as I type.

Lucky for us my sister-in-law is a very resourceful person. She said she would just wash the kids' clothes and they could wear them again tomorrow, and they could just wear some t-shirts or something to sleep in for the night. But, what to do for the next couple of days?

It seems my wife and I are leaving for my brother & sister-in-laws' house tonight (Wednesday) instead of going their Friday morning after our Bed & Breakfast stay. We will stay one night with the in-laws, drop off the kids' suitcases, and then leave for our Bed & Breakfast in the afternoon.

I can't believe we left the suitcases back at home. It was so sad, It was funny! Anyway, I gotta go do a little grocery shopping for next week, drop off the dog at the vet and start my packing a day early. See ya Sunday night (maybe)!

That's why you've got to pile them right in front of the door, so their impossible to miss.
