I was reading about a couple yesterday who were vacationing in Cuba, they were upset because the hurrican has ruined their vacation. Everything is closed including the hotel. I actually had to laugh that these people, do they even pay attention when they plan things like this? This couple was from Europe so maybe they just don’t pay attention to hurricanes like we do.

I do find myself wondering about the people that book Caribbean cruises and vacations at this time of year. You have to know you run the chance of it being ruined by a hurricane. Yes the prices are probably much cheaper, but there is a reason for that!

I’m finding myself daydreaming a lot about getting away from here for a while. While European cruises and Caribbean getaways sound great, they will never happen to me as it just cost way too much. So I put up a nice tropical desktop and hoped that it would be enough.

I know everyone right now is worried about money. No one has any and now they are talking $7 gas by winter. It’s crazy! At the same time I’m hoping people will see that we need to stop depending on oil and other countries for things. I’m just hoping I can move before it goes up. I’m not looking forward to $800 a month, just to get to school, not all of that is gas, but because I’m diabetic and have to have at least 2 snacks and a meal out 3 days a week, it’s expensive.
