It seems crazy to blog on vacation, but in truth, I’m more relaxed knowing that I have access to my emails and can do a little work (not too much) when I’m away. I’m more stressed wondering what’s happening and not knowing. And in truth, I spend less than half-an-hour per day dealing with this stuff.

Also, check out Tech CU’s blog post on how to save money planning your family vacation. (Tech CU is a credit union in the Bay Area.) We’ve also linked to some great sites, etc. Check it out, if you’d like: http://techcublog.com/?p=96

Thanks.

You said: “Be careful and do a lot of research before giving anyone your credit card (or in our case, debt card)” I got a huge giggle out of your typo – if anybody has a DEBIT card instead of a DEBT card, it’s you!

Can’t wait to hear about the vacation. And I’m curious about the separate rooms too, if you don’t mind telling us!

@Jill – Ummm… b/c I have sleep apnea and I sleep under a breathing machine at night. My wife, I can assure you, is the one who created the sleeping layout – and the baby is a much ‘sounder’ sleeper than I am. As for ‘baby duty’ – we have a very good system in place. The baby eats at 9 PM – and I stay up until her next feeding at 1 AM. Then, I go to bed and Mommy gets up at 5 AM for the next feeding.

I just have to ask, because I am a Mother to four busy kids myself. Why do you get a room to yourself, while your wife sleeps with the little one? Please tell me you will be taking baby duty at least some of the time? Moms need a vacation, too, you know!
