A Real Weekend
One day to go now, today is the day before I get to go away for two wonderful days of camping. I’m so excited it’s a little pathetic. But I haven’t managed to get out of town for longer than an afternoon since almost two years ago. It’s a little pathetic how much I’m looking forward to this.
I’m a little worried that once we get out there and set up camp I’m going to collapse with exhaustion and stay that way. It’s been a pretty busy week just trying to get ready. I’m telling myself it’s just that the camping stuff hasn’t been used in two years so everything is scattered to the far corners of the earth, and completely filthy when it gets found. I’ve been washing and scrubbing and fixing and organizing for days now.
Hopefully this will mean that next time it will go easier, and a two day vacation won’t cost a week’s extra work. But that means hopefully I’ll get to go somewhere and do something sooner than another two years from now. Otherwise it will be the same mess again.
Gotta go, time to do a little cooking to have stuff ready to go. Still have one more sleeping bag to wash. And a little more laundry. Have to get the pets set up for a weekend alone. And one last trip to the store. And oh my goodness, how am I ever going to get all this stuff to fit in the car?
