NO "OUTDOORSY" VACATIONS FOR ME!!!

Last week I told you that Chase was going to Boy Scout Camp.


He did.


I asked him how he liked it.


Two words.


"It sucked."


Now Chase, I am sure you had fun with the guys.


"Yes."


I am sure you had fun in the woods.


"No."


I am sure it was fabulous not to have me nagging you every day.


"Yes."


I am sure you enjoyed sleeping in a tent under the stars.


"No."


What was your favorite part of the experience?


"The part where I got to come home three times for baseball practice.

I got to play ball.

I got a good, hot meal.

I got a shower.

I had air conditioning."



"Well, there must have been something that was fun or exciting... what was that?"


Silence.


The best part of this conversation was that I realized Chase will not be asking to go camping in the woods for our vacation.


That makes me a happy mama!!!
