Please Don't Make Me Go

Camping.

Sleeping on the ground, cook over a fire, freeze at night, camping. With a four year old who just informed me that her name is now Plumito. While I'm vomiting. Camping.

I love this crap. I really do. And we haven't gone this year yet. But I'm so tired, and so sick. And everything is so much freakin' work when you camp.

The ONLY upside is the DH (who would keel over and die if he knew I'd trade it for a hotel and a facial). He's one of those super outdoorsy types who eats this stuff up. I can sit in the car with a book while he sets up. And cooks, and cleans, and feels all rugged and manly for it.

Biggest fear? I'm going to puke in the bushes (there's no way I'm putting my face near an outhouse seat) and the vomit surrounding our campsite will attract bears.

  • I'm with Rad&Co, u wouldn't get me on a campsite either.....ever....so well done you!!! :o)
  • We went as few weeks ago. I made my husband agree to bring an inflatable mattress and I brought my snoogle pregnancy pillow. I'm not an outdoors person but we go camping because my husband likes it but to hell with sleeping like crap! Nobody wants to see me cranky!

  • I hope it turns out better than you think! We went last weekend and I think being in the fresh air did me good. We also had an air mattress and I slept better than I do at home! I'm not pukey though, just nauseous, gaggy, and starving with food aversion.

  • On my way camping now. LOVE IT!!!
  • Sounds awful...right now! I love camping, but I don't think I could handle the heat and being sick outdoors right now!! I'm not feeling very tough these days. Sorry :(
