Just a little sad…

…dh  has gone to Europe  and after that the US.  He’s combining business with pleasure.  The man is travelling by first class on SQ. He wouldn’t pay full price.  He paid a little and used redeemption points.  Of course, if I went along, we would’ve travelled by business class only.  If kids are traveling along, we travel economy.  Ha ha.  I was really looking forward to this trip to Paris and to the wedding in Chateau de Veuil and walking around the surrounding village. Even bought 3 very nice dresses for this occasion.   Oh well, kids are still in school and have exams.  Plus, Aly has to take the assessment test to get into the international school.  We didn’t know the dates for the exams ahead and thought mil can babysit again.  Found out the dates for the exams were exactly starting the week we were supposed to leave for Europe.   I have to be around.  Can’t ask mil to stay and take care of them.  She had a tough time in March while Dh and I were in Sri Lanka.  Alyssa was sick and mil had to drive kids to tuition and she got lost a few times.  Dh said better not ask her again.  Oh well, he’s going with his business partners and the other wives couldn’t go either.  I would’ve enjoyed going around by myself exploring the museums in Paris while he had business meetings.  I could practice my French.  Lol.  Had to take that as my foreign language in college.  It was so long ago.   My French is definitely better than my Chinese.  Dh said we’ll take a trip just by ourselves in the future.
