*Mach* Posted April 30, 2011 #6 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Three weeks till we are on our way, Stressing about everything, leaving older kids at home, leaving the dogs. Driving almost 17 hours....Getting sick...Oh I could just keep going on........I think its worse cause we are not taking the kids, lol Here's a prescription for stress from Dr. Mach... put on some of your favorite Jimmy Buffett tunes and some island music, read reviews of your ship here on Cruise Critic, don't take too much very seriously, have a boat drink or two... Repeat as necessary until symptoms are gone. Everything will work out fine. The kids will be OK, so will the dogs. The drive will be long but worth it when you first lay your eyes on your ship. Have a brilliant cruise... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted April 30, 2011 #7 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Maybe I should start a poll. Do lists help keep your stress down prior to the cruise. This is the 2nd thread in 2 days where a poster is feeling stressed. Or a poll what things help destress you? Music as Host Mach suggests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruisin 4 Ever Posted April 30, 2011 #10 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Well thanks everything.....Im gonna try the music idea , its gonna be our 30th anniversary . I think its a Mom thing to stress so much about these crazy kids........3 weeks today we will be there, it will be worth it... Perfectly normal to be feeling stress. I get worried about everything, did I remember this and that?? I love Host Mach's cure though. Crank the island tunes have a little dance with hubby, and relax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
