My first day of Vacation

I am up early today. I dreamt of getting ready to go to the airport all night. Actually I dreamt that I asked 5 different people to check on the cats. They all came over for keys at different times. I had even asked Art to come over and check on them. He is the little guy that used to live in my old apartment complex that would not leave me alone. I had to finally get a restraining order on him so he would stop bugging me......I have not seen him in years, I don't know what made me even think of him. In the dream, after he left I thought "why did I just give that man my keys and alarm code? what was I thinking?" Art also found Stanley and brought him to my apartment. My niece Heather was over. She answered the door and he said "look what I found" and she took the Kitten and said "Thanks" So there you go, I had a cat. That was when I was still being nice to him. I thought he was harmless. He had such a crush on me. Then it got to the point that I could not even leave my house without him coming out and following me. To the laundry room, to the pool. One day he just walked into my apartment (the door was open, but still you stop and call out, you don't just walk in) When I finally said something to him like "you really need to give me some privacy" he did not like it and then he was rude to me. Oh, he was so annoying!! Anyway I finally called the cops on him one night cause he was sitting on the steps outside my apartment and he said something really rude to me and we got in a fight. He called me "a snake". I am laughing now but it was not funny at the time. I was so mad! The cops suggested I get the restaining order on him. Boy did it work. He never spoke to me again.
Well that was good cause I stopped thinking about getting on the plane in a few hours. Oh, now I am thinking about it again, my stomach is in knots. As soon as I am showered and ready I am going to take one of my little pills and get nice and calm. I don't want to take one too soon cause I am afraid I will lose that edge, calm down too much and forget something. When did I become this uptight? Actually I think I have always been this way about travel it just seems intensified. I am becoming my mother. I loved her dearly but I don't want to be like her in the way.
This should be my last post for a week. I doubt I will take the time in Costa Rica to post but I might email.

Have a good week!
