I have to go to Hawaii and I don't want to go. Yes, you read that correctly.I HAVE to go to Hawaii and I DON'T want to go.
Here's the story:
CJ won T-Mobile's PEAK award. What is PEAK and why is this a significant achievement?
PEAK Achievement is the ultimate of all T-Mobile awards. Sometime early next spring (I think) a small fraction of employees will be invited to join the Sr. Leadership team for the annual PEAK Achievers Meeting held in the first market T-Mobile launched over ten years ago, Hawaii!
I believe this year about 250 employees attended the award ceremony in March.
I am so so happy for him and couldn't be more proud BUT...I don't want to go. I don't want to fly, I don't want to leave my kids for (almost) an entire week.
I am terrified to fly. I won't even fly from here (Pennsylvania) to Florida when we go to Disney! What the hell makes anyone think I'd get on a plane to Cali, then get on ANOTHER plane to Hawaii?? Seriously?
Leaving my kids is another issue. CJ has it all figured out. He will fly his mom here (from Ohio) and she can stay with the boys and Jeff can just keep Olivia. Well, that would be just great IF Jeff could get an entire week off of work to have Livi and IF it was a summer trip when Olivia didn't have school. However, it will most likely be a spring trip as this year it was in March - Olivia's birthday is in March. Olivia will need to be taken to the bus stop and picked up. She will need help with homework and since it's during school, even if Jeff had off, it would be so much nonsensical driving back and forth for him.
My kids are 2, 3 and 6 - not 12, 13 and 16. I don't feel comfortable leaving them with ANYONE while I go clear across the country!
