In SIX DAYS, we’ll be leaving for sun and fun in Temptations in Cancun, Mexico! I have been doing a little bit of packing and/or shopping every day for the last couple of weeks. I’ve also been hanging out on the Cancun Care forums, trying to pick up some tips from TTR veterans and chat some of the folks we’ll likely see when we get there.

According to the Weather Channel, we might be getting some rain while we’re down there, but I’m not worried. I’m pretty sure Mr. Sweet and I can find ways to amuse ourselves indoors—especially since we have a Jacuzzi suite. My main concern is the weather up here. I don’t want to miss a minute of our vacation due to ole’ Jack Frost.

I’ve also been hitting the gym in an attempt to get my body a little closer to bikini-ready--there’s a topless beach and pool there, and I don’t want to be a prude and miss all the fun. It seems I’m constantly sore, and the scale doesn’t seem to move much. But I can see a difference in the way my clothes fit, so I’m making some progress.

As Mr. Sweet’s last full week of travel duty comes to an end, I’m trying to rein in my excitement to no avail. Even the kids are getting wound up about having Daddy home, though they’ll have to wait a bit longer. It’s probably a good thing I’m working tomorrow, because I’d be climbing the walls otherwise, lol! We’ll spend the weekend running last minute errands, getting the house ready (I always clean before a vacation), and spending time with the kiddos.

Hmm . . . Since it’s already bedtime for the kiddos, it’s technically only FIVE more days!!
