I have six hours left until my weekend begins. I am so excited! We're going camping this weekend at one of our favorite state parks. It's a recreation area and there is so much to do there. I'm hoping the weather will be great and not incredibly hot like it has been for the past few days. Even so, it will still be nice to get away for a few days. Normally we go up to Mr. Jeep's family cottage for Memorial weekend, but due to some family "issues" that occurred during hunting season in the fall, we will not be going up there. It's a very long story, so I will not bore you with the details. Memorial Day weekend at the cottage is never fun for me anyway. It's not just immediate family that goes, it's also extended family (aunts, uncles, cousins, etc.). It's way too chaotic for me and I usually end up being in a bad mood. So the "issues" that happened at hunting season are fine with me, and Mr. Jeep.
We finally broke down yesterday and turned our air-conditioning on. It was so humid and hot that we couldn't stand it any longer. I really don't like turning the air on because I feel so cut off from the rest of the world. We spend from about October - beginning of May with the windows and doors closed, why would we do that in the summer months, too? I have to admit that it made for some nice sleeping temperatures, though.
LC came down with Strep throat last weekend. I took her to the doctor on Monday and found out that's what she has. Luckily she's not running the super high fever she was running. I just feel so bad because her cough is horrible. The doctor's appointment wasn't so great. She was fine until the doctor wanted to look in her mouth. I finally had to hold her down while he looked in there and he immediately said, "Well, that's why she didn't want me to look!" It took two of us to hold her down while the third did the throat culture. It was very traumatic for both LC and me. So now she's on Amoxicillin and hopefully on the road to recovery.
Have a great holiday weekend!
