back

i came back today. camping for my family officially ends tomorrow, but i decided to today, cuz Chris and Nicole came up last night, and Chris was only able to sleep for one hour (4a-5a) and so he wanted to be able to sleep and Nicole had to be home anyway cuz she had to work, so i just came with. no point making Chris come pick me up from my moms tomorrow or making someone bring me home.

i had to make an appointment for monday morning at the doctor, cuz i think i have a UTI. i shouldve called while camping (it siriusly started Monday) and made and appointment earlier and drove down, cuz the worst of it ended a couple days ago, but its still there, so i figure, why not? thatll be a fun appointment….

i have to get back on my night schedule too. i doubt itll be that hard, not as hard as getting onto days. i can so easily take naps during the day. i feel like it right now, but i REALLY need to do the wash. my clothes from camping smell so strongly of lake and smoke.

so my week: it was pretty fun. biggest downfall is Michelle suddenly hating our family and sitting around with her sister while she was there talking about is in hushed voices. and she sat in the camper a lot. i dont think i ever saw her outside of it except for going to the lake and meals. i became like, the official discipline person for the kids all week. they hit, or pushed, or did anything wrong, they were in time out in a second. the worst was Logan. that kid can really kick and squirm when youre trying to keep him in a time out. it made it interesting. but they were all listening to me by the end of the week.

so anyway, there was this one day, i think Thursday, but we were down at the lake, and earlier that day i had brought Aadyn and Jordan down while everyone else went to the laundrymat and store, so when we all went down later in the day i didnt bring my suit at all, not in the mood for swimming then. so i was sitting there, reading my book, with my back turned, when Mike showed up, all dripping wet and standing over me. he was asking if i was gonna swim when suddenly i got a drop of water on my other side and looking over, saw keith. then my mind clicked. i was screwed. they picked me up, and i just slumped, cuz it was pointless resisting, and they dragged me out into the lake and dropped me.

i didnt get to wear my bra the rest of the time i was up there because it was hanging on the wash line drying. it sucked.

but, all in all, the week was fun, and i really enjoyed myself. the time off, away from everything that stresses me out, it was good. i missed Chris like hell and he sent me the BEST text ever. it was a picture of him looking sad and lonely, and it had the song "here without you" by 3 doors down playing. i so wanted to cry. it was, like, the most romantic thing hes ever done. i pretty much jumped him when i saw him. i know so many people have spent so much more time apart from the ones they love, but it was the longest wed been apart in a year, so i did miss him, and im allowed that.

now i just got done spening nearly 2 hours in the bath/shower. i feel so clean. i could siriusly smell the smoke and lake smells leaving my pores. plus the sunscreen and sweat and bug spray. ew.

i left my camera up there, but as soon as i get it back, ill put pictures up.

we didnt go hiking anywhere, cuz it rained, like, every day after Tuesday, and it was just too muddy and gross for anyone to want and try and climb Dundee or Parnell Tower. ill probably go up some day and do it. just cuz i have to.

but i really need to go and get my clothes in the wash now. and keep reading. and play WoW.

and hug my bed.

air mattresses blow compared to real beds.

laterz.
