It's that time of year again when hubby goes of to camp with 100+ fifth graders. I hope the weather will be good for them up there. It's a science camp and there are all sorts of outdoor activities they do. Pond scumming to learn of the things in the water. Tracking to learn about animals, just to name a couple. Fun things like making lure, birdhouses, archery, outdoor cooking. Sometimes I wonder who has more fun, the kids or him.
What's in it for me staying home? Four days of not having the tv on until about 6:30 at night. Doing any project without someone standing over my shoulder. Reading non-stop if I please. I know, this may sound like a grump but it's just that alone time once in awhile. Something I wouldn't like for too very long at a time. I do miss him when he's gone and sometimes find myself wandering around absently.
Did you watch DWTS? I really do think it's going to be a tough season. I'm still a little grumpy about Donald Drivers scores. It was nice of Len to apologize for marking him too low last week but I think they all did it again this week. But then I am a Packer fan :-).
I have so many things I'd like to get done in these 4 days and probably won't accomplish much of anything, lol. I certainly won't if I don't get off here. But hey, they are priorities you know.
Off to give it a shot. Have a good day.
He was EXCELLENT! He and that young Latin dude were THE best as far as I'm sconcerned. I can't believe I missed the first one last week! But I have reminders set up so that doesn't happen again.
ReplyDeleteAll the stout ladies need to just hang it up and do it now..they'll never make it. Gladys Knight..love her but....she's a bit long in the tooth to get very far. Martina..nope. Ain't gonna happen.
xox
Your Driver was excellent! I was amazed.
Wow, you have a BRAVE husband!!! 100+ fifth graders! my, my, my....sounds like fun though. I would like to do some of those activities myself...so would my hubby...maybe there should be science camp for over 50 folks!!! Just a thought there.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about alone time....something to be treasured, but not to be endured for too long of a time.
Relish your time of recharging all you can my friend. I hope that you are able to get a lot of things done!
ReplyDeleteGive yourself some R&R time and enjoy it. Your husband is to be commended for his volunteer work.
ReplyDeleteWe all need our own time now and then. I always enjoy my own time if hubby goes away for a couple of days. You can do what you want, or do nothing at all. It's just relaxing, no special time to have dinner ready etc. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThe right one left tonight. Now Sherry or Gladys needs to be next or that man who squeaked by tonight..Karina's partner..ol' whatizname.
ReplyDeleteDriver and the Latin boy..are THE best on there with the English woman next. Jenkins I think her name is.
I remember going to one of those camps. I had blast. The camp was in New Hampshire. The Patriots used to train there way back when the American Football League had just started. The Patriots stunk back then.
