Heart Broken

[PurpleDragon]

I did something last week I've never had to do before in my life and it was actually physically painful. We had a trip to WDW booked for June to stay for a week, but last week I had to cancel it. There were some severe storms here in Atlanta back last month and we had some major hail damage to our home and to our vehicles. Because of this we had to pay deductibles for several different claims and thus are currently broke and can't afford our trip to WDW. We had been talking it up to our kids and they were almost as excited as I was to go, especially since its been a couple years since we last visited. The disappointment in their eyes just made my guilt/pain that much worse.

Anyway, I thought sharing would help ease the pain of not getting to go to Disney or any other vacation destination this year. It sucks!

Man that sucks
Having had to cancel on the day of travel i know how bad that phone call is.Hope you manage to re-schedule for another year .

Sorry to hear that man. I like @Spikerdink 's suggestion of the cookie jar. I think it would be fun for the kids...

Sorry for you. Have you thought about booking another trip in a few months? Maybe you could stay at a cheaper resort, go for less days, Eat at QS places instead of sit downs. Drive instead of fly? Hope you work something out so you can reschedule your trip.

I am VERY sorry that you had to cancel. I totally understand your pain. Last Sept. we had to cancel when my husband became ill. I rescheduled for November, but he did not get better, and was hospitalized, so we cancelled again. He is slowly on the mend now, and we have hopes of going this September for his birthday. So hang in there, things will improve and you will get there.....(will think good thoughts for you)

So, sorry. We currently don't have a trip planned to WDW but, we talk about it constantly! Trying to save up for December, don't know if it'll happen though.
