Countdown to TRF

[LadyShadow]

As much as I wish TRF would start tomorrow.  I am needing the time to finish sewing and save more money.  Only if prices of everything would just go down and pay could stay at the same level.  I would be able to save soo much more with out headaches and problems.

Well I was very excited about the '08 season because the wife and I are moving to Austin from San Antonio next month.  We used to drive from San Antonio and we couldn't make it but twice a year.  Now we will be closer to TRF (as well as Scarborough) and we thought we could get out there more often.

Then she reminded me that we have children and our only multi-day childcare options are in San Antonio.  Although we usually take the little one to Scarby, we like to do TRF as an adult weekend.  So our shorter trip is longer than ever with a detour in the wrong direction.

Any suggestions?

[LadyShadow]

Have any family or friends in this direction?  When hubby and I want an adult only day/weekend at TRF we call family and/or friends.  I know in Houston they have anytime daycares/centers.  So maybe that might be an option.

We bring the young 'uns with us and camp with McLotofus.  This year we ARE trying to get Pirate Fling without the kiddos... but they'll be ther for sure on Thanksgiving.  McLotofus usually has several families with kids ranging from wee tiny to almost grown.

We usually take our daughter to Scarborough and we've talked about camping in the family section at TRF before.  I'm more inclined to do that one weekend now that we are closer.  But like most parents, we don't get a lot of alone adult time to have some drinks and have fun and TRF camping is the one activity of the year where we get to cut loose and have fun (as we did in our youth... sigh).

At some point we'll make friends in Austin but of course, it takes a pretty strong relationship to drop off kids for 72 hours.  In the mean time we may just have to do...  hmmmm... crating? (that's a joke, by the way.)

I had just hoped to hit TRF 3x this year instead of our usual 2.  But it may have to just be the one time.

Of the worst kind.   

[LadyShadow]

I agree,  that is torture.  Makes it worse, ALOT WORSE!!

[MacLaren]

Torture indeed. Ah Hell's bells, I need to get off this idiot box and work on a new bamboo project I thought up!
