Rain, rain go away

In Canada!  The trip is going to be a messy wash.  All outdoor adventures are cancelled.  Ugh.  Goodbye whale watching boat, lighthouse walks, hiking at sunset.  Hello flight delays, etc.  I'm not trying to be a downer, but it's some serious crappy weather EVERY SINGLE DAY!  And the forecast keeps getting worse.

I looked at canceling the trip, but no options with miles used and less than 72 hours away.  I talked to my aunt and she still wants me to come.  There are a few indoor things we can see and just hang out playing games, Netflix, drinking wine, etc.

It's disappointing.  And I'm in the phase of my trip when I "worry" about the travel.  Happens every time, but I push through it -- usually the excitement of the trip helps.  No excitement currently.

Today is a "getting ready" day.  Lots to prep with dogs, lots to do with packing.  The more I can get finished today, the more smoothly tomorrow will go.  I have a full Tuesday (dog to groomer, taking lunch to a friend who had surgery, drop Gigi off, pick-up dog ... lots of scooting around).  Then bed super early as I need to get up at 3am.

I downloaded a few books to my kindle.  Something tells me I'm going to need them!

I hope a weather miracle happens and we get to do some of the activities.  I want to go-with-the-flow, be a happy camper, not care that this trip looks like it will be a big old disappointment.  I really want to be all that ... but you know me and I know me.

My INTENTION today is to work on my lousy attitude.  The urge to hibernate is very strong right now.  I want to cancel this trip with all my might.  But I said YES, so YES wins.  Later gators.
