" DO I HAVE TO TAKE THESE OFF FIRST " ?

WE ARE BACK, AND VERY TIRED.  IT WAS A MUCH LONGER TRIP THAN WE THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE.  ALSO WITH THREE DOGS IN THE CAR, IT MADE IT SEEM THAT MUCH FARTHER!!  ANY HOW, WE DID HAVE A NICE TIME, THE WEATHER WAS PERFECT, AND THE HOTEL WAS REALLY NICE AS WELL (THANKS AGAIN SIS!!).  MIKE SAID THE ABOVE WORDS AS WE WERE GETTING READY TO GO DOWN TO THE SPA FOR SOME TREATMENTS.  MIKE WAS GETTING A PEDICURE, AND HE HAD ON HIS TENNIS SHOES WHEN HE ASKED ME IF HE NEEDED TO TAKE OFF HIS TENNIS SHOES TO PUT ON HIS FLIP FLOPS.  THEN HE ASKED IF HE ALSO HAD TO TAKE OFF HIS SOCKS.  HE WAS NOT AS DISORIENTED THIS TRIP AS HE HAS BEEN IN PAST ONES, BUT HE WAS STILL QUITE CONFUSED AT TIMES.  I HAVE DECIDED THAT THERE WILL BE NO MORE OVER NIGHT TRIPS EXCEPT TO VISIT OUR SON AND HIS FAMILY IN SAN DIEGO ONCE IN A WHILE.  IT IS JUST TOO HARD ON MIKE.  HE IS SO TIRED FROM THE TRAVELING, AND THE LAST HOUR OR SO HE KEPT WANTING TO KNOW HOW MUCH LONGER BEFORE WE ARE THERE.  REMINDED ME OF WHEN THE KIDS WERE LITTLE AND THEY WOULD ALWAYS SAY "ARE WE THERE YET"??  OH WELL, I REALLY NEED TO SAY SO LONG FOR NOW, AS MIKE HAS HIS SECOND INJECTION FOR HIS KNEE TODAY, AND I NEED TO GET GOING IF I WILL GET US THERE ON TIME.  TILL TOMORROW-LIFE REALLY IS A BEACH!!  JUST ME
