Oh No! What do we do? (not dog related)

Oh boy, of boy. Tony started his new job yesterday. He thinks its going to be great, and he's very happy he made the move.

During his interview process, he had mentioned that we had our Key West vacation planned for May, and he wanted them to know up front. Y'all know how important this trip is to us every year.

Yesterday he called me and told me, he can't take the week we had planned to go because someone else will be off that week. Ugh...

I know we can reschedule. But will cost a lot more to change plane tickets and there is fee for the time-share to change the dates, once you have book it.

If it were just us, that would be (sort of) ok...however, we have another couple coming with us who has already booked their plane tickets, and requested their time off from work.

Ugh.. this is just so confusing! I feel responsible it will be costing them more. AND, to tell the truth, I'm feeling embarrassed to tell them!

Tony said I should just go, but Key West isn't Key West without him. And how unfair for me to be frolicking while he's at work.

I'm confused....any solutions?

PS: We really didn't get to talk about this in detail because by the time I got home from my meeting, he was already in bed.

Go alone - and plan a trip later in the year with him :wink:
Oh no, that sucks... :( I'd not want to go unless my husband was there. Can you go w/one of your kids? Not the most romantic, but could be fun w/your daughter.

I took my daughter to the keys last year with my sister and I and it was fun - she actually is my best traveling companion :D
Go without him. Things like this happen. Not the end of the world. Jim used to go to Florida 3 times in the winter when he had 5 weeks vacation & I only had 2.
I think I'd go without him, too. :? No, it won't be the same, but stuff happens and it can't always be avoided. I would try to change the ticket to your daughter's name if she can get off work to go. That would be cool. 8)

:lmt: Although.....if you change everything to a week when Tony can go too, you will be free that weekend and you can come to SHEEPIEPALOOZA!!! :yay:

Don't think that hasn't crossed my mind!!! :wink:
After many hours of conversation this weekend, Tony has announced he just can't go this year. He wants me to go (with the other couple) because if we cancel, not only would we lose the use of the condo (which costs a small fortune) we would feel obligated to reimburse the other couple for their airfare.

So, it looks like I'm going. I've asked my daughter if she'd like to join me, and she's checking to see if she can come for at least a couple days.

I'm so sad Tony won't be there. And I know he is incredibly sad. I have to try and not KW plans in front of him. I don't want him to feel worse.
I know it is difficult for both of you, but it does make the most sense economically. Sorry it worked out that way. :(
will your daughter protect you from Robert??? THAT is the big question!
