Lets talk a little more about traveling
When planning a trip do you:
Book everything yourself ? Depends where I'm going - quick easy trip, I book everything myself.
Use a travel Agent ? For longer or more complicated overseas trips I use a travel agent. He's a personal friend so I know I get the best possible deal and he's only a phone call or email away if anything goes wrong.
Book online ? For a quick flight to Sydney I do this.
Book on the phone ?
Have you ever used Traveler Checks ? Yes, but not for some years. Credit/debit cards are just easier all round.

When you just don't feel like cooking, what is your
"go to" meal solution ? Ha - I hardly ever feel like cooking! If I really don't feel like pulling something together, and have had my quota of take-outs or restaurant meals for the week, I'll have an omelet, or maybe mushrooms or baked beans on toast.Happy Thursday to all.
What was the last "bet" you made with a friend or family member ?
Lol I only make "bets" when I know I will win
However right now Hubby has a bet going with my boss
My boss is famous for his last minute travel plan changes lol want to guess who has to go in and make the changes
So last week when I booked him on 4 flights hubby added his 2 cents while we were on the phone saying "how many of those will you change"
Of course men being men they both started talking "smack"
So they have a bet if my bosses texts me with a "um lol can you get me on a later flight" he has to buy hubby a bottle of crown
If he makes all 4 flights hubby owes him a bottle of Patron
rofl last night I got a text around 8:30 and headed over to the computer
Hubby started laughing because the only person I get texts from that late is my boss but it was to just add another flight so that doesn't count
But hubby said that just increases his chances of winning
hmmm I just realized I am doing all the work and one of the 2 of them will reap the rewards lol whats wrong with this picture
