Matilda, The ball's back in my court as far as planning this trip. She wants to take a vacation, which is reasonable. I spoke with a travel agent again today, and she's going to work with me on creating a Hawaii trip that meets our budget. It's the same travel agent who told me that Hawaii was 8-10K, so I don't understand the inconsistency. She said there are ways to lower the cost, as long as there is flexibility on our part.
My W has been sending me thank you emails, regarding the ways I make her life easier. She said that I've been acting more like a partner than an assistant when it comes to the cooking job.
She has invited me to take a private lesson with her with this instructor from New York who comes to town annually. She also set-up a private lesson with one of her regular instructors, so she and I can sample some other ballroom dances (West Coast Swing, Hustle). It's great to see her back in her dancing groove.
My only concern if this visitor comes is the lack of security regarding financial documents. I'm not used to having people stay at our place, so don't secure documents. I don't want my W's altruism to turn into identity theft. I think I'll handle this matter on my own.
