I am exhausted, I would really like this to be all over now.

Pictures from my trip:

msbelle, even though it would make me really tired ,( we helped someone move yesterday), I wish I could help you with the bug problem. You have enough other stuff to deal with.

So, Dana, was FIRST CLASS worth it? :)

So, Dana, was FIRST CLASS worth it?

Oh, my god, it almost made me a communist. I felt guilty with how much we were fed, for example. However, the footrest and the seat that tilted way back were godsends. And having first class for most of the trip certainly helped with all the drama on the way back.

But seriously. There's a CHEESE COURSE.

Don't worry, the proles in economy were resenting you mightily!

Neat trip, other than the drama.

Sounds like WW3 upstairs. It's just Loki attacking the freshly made guest bed.

I just feel like there ought to be a way to make first class slightly less extravagant and coach slightly less miserable.

The shrimp risotto I had on the way back was aces, though.

beth, the offer of help is appreciated. honestly, I wouldn't let anyone over to help, though. I have way too much guilt anytime I leave the house. Even with spraying down our shoes each time and never wearing anything that has not been treated and kept in plastic, I fear spreading them.

ok, off to pick up more laundry.

Oh god, msbelle, I'd missed that you were dealing with bedbugs! I am so sorry! I've been paranoid about them since my return (everything got washed in hot, luggage is in bags for a good long time) since one of the hotels others in the group stayed at had them. I think I dodged a bullet, but mosquito season finally breaking out on my return home didn't help the paranoia.

well, within the week, I will have a high heat machine for treating luggage and other non-washables, so should I ever take such a trip, now I will be prepared. head. desk.
