Add in another 1500 bucks on top of that for missed work...i am self employed...no vacation pay, no sickleave, no nothing....plus a "spur of the moment" trip like that would have been basically impossible for *me*....and i'd *much* rather do it myself...but that is just me, i feel everyone should do what they want or what is best for them...ya know?
