I am not sure if I will be able to take my vacation in April this year.  I am pondering whether the take it in April like I usually do, I wait until mid May, when I will be able to team up with a couple girlfriends.  We usually try to get together at least once a year and go someplace for a girl getaway, and we leave the guys at home with the kids.  I am hearing from the girls and it seems we are all having a hard time coordinating our schedules this year.  The guys are getting used to keeping the kids, since they have been doing it for several years now.  They were watching a Cleveland Cavaliers game that last time we got together to discuss our getaway plans.  We think it will be a three day cruise.  It all works out because the guys usually get together much more often than we do.  They love to go on fishing trips.  They go for no less than a week at a time.  Sometimes they rent an RV and camp out.  We have all gone on vacation trips like that with the whole family and enjoyed it.
