Hell, I didn't even really want to come in here and talk about it because I've been so persona non grata for the past forever, it seems.
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Oh, Aims. I'm so sorry. I agree with, erika; go on the vacation if you can at all do it, especially if you're worried about how all of this will effect Emeline. I would think it would be extra hard for her at her age to not only have to move again but to also cancel the vacation she's been looking forward to.
Ugh, omnis. I hope it is nothing serious.

That's crazy talk. Aims, you are always welcome here. We love you.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
My advice is to not turn away help from friends when it's offered. It was offered in good will, and if you need it, accept it. As for the camping trip, that's a personal call. If it's within your finances, it might be a nice respite from all this.

I'm sorry you'll have to move again, Aims. It's such an exhausting, disruptive process. I hope you can find a good, permanent place soon.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Never! You're always welcome here!
Sorry I have no advice on the house, but lots of prayers going your way.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Coming form a family who moved a lot AND had money issues, I say don't go on the trip but still camp. Set up a tent (borrow one from a friend if you have to) in your backyard. Cook over the firepit. Do crafts.
We had some REALLY cheap vacations when I was a kid and all I remember was the fun.

Okay - this is really funny. I totally though "persona non grata" meant "person not around". I didn't mean to say I thought I was unwelcome. Glad to know I am!
I need a house AND a dictionary.
