A BIG challenge for me...

16 years ago 0 +0 / -0 313

Hey guys...

awww shucks.. thanks for the kind words. Well I leave tomorrow morning. My hubby is coming up to help me set up camp..lol. and spend the day with us but he won't be joining us for the nights until later this week. YIKES!! lol.. It should be great... My sister is coming ( hopefully) to keep me company and that should ease all my anxiety... If we can't beat off the bears noone can..lol...(there better not be any bears...sheesh)

She did tell me there is NO cel phone reception up there so that freaked me out a bit..but again what's the worst that can happen with 200 other campsites in the vicinity???

I'll be back Friday..so until then... Enjoy your week!!

I'll be back to share my success...

What a trooper you are. Just think how proud of yourself you'll be after the trip is over...Good luck and we are all thinking of you!

Lol, I know the feeling of back and forth. I am going on a 4-5 day trip soon. Part of me is really excited abuot it and part of me is terrified! The long hours in the bus, the feeling of going somewhere I don,t know, all of it terrifies me! Yet, I feel excited at the same time. Makes me wanna sigh too. Anyway, can't wait to hear about your trip! Hang in there, I think the anticipation is part of the worse of it!

Thanks everyone...

I feel great about facing it one minute....and then get totally anxious the next... Oh well.. It will be alright... I mean really what is the worst that can happen? I've handled worse things in my life...much...

*sigh*... I could just go back and forth on this all night...

Instead I'll find something more productive...like laundry... lol

Take care

Oh wow you . I think you will be absolutely fine but can understand your concerns . I would have to agree with the others that i would get to know the neighbours which im sure you will anyway .

HI DM, sounds like you are taking on a big challenge, i know you will be great. Try make some friends, have a campfire, and i'm sure there will be lots of kids running around, if its a family friendly camp site, its going to be so much fun. That makes it much easier..I think. You are going to have the best time, I just know it:)

Dazed, Good for you for challenging and facing this fear! Start preparing yourself with books, magazines lights, crosswords and invite friends over to your site for company! Josie, Health Educator

Hello DM,

Feel free to go on and on as much as you want. I think it is great that you are taking this fear on and I am sure you will be a success! I am very impressed with your plans! I get why you are nervous but am still sure you will do great. I wish I had some great tip or advice but I am not an outdoorsy person. I find the darkness frightening at night. Oh that andI do not like bugs lol.

Feel free to vent here anytime. I am sure the others will be on shortly and will have something more helpful to say. One way or another please keep us posted on this newest adventure!

Hi Everyone...

ok... I've got a big one coming up...

We had booked a camping trip ages ago and it's coming up this coming Sunday... We are taking our two kidlets and my sisters son. Should be an awesome group and we're going to a beautiful place etc. The deal is now my hubby may have to work during some of that time... which means... I'll have to be alone at night with the kids in the campsite and I'm freaking out!! My hubby is gone a lot normally so being alone with the kids isn't an issue... and if we were in a cabin or hotel I would be fine also but it's the camping part... It gets VERY dark...and quiet and I'm very nervous about it...

We're staying in a family friendly... very popular place which is completely booked so there will be a lot of people around... I'm just a bit nervous about the whole thing.

My hubby of course says then he won't work..but I know he has too... It's the type of job he has and it's just the situation and timing is terrible...blah blah...

Anyways.. I don't want to cancel as the kids are soo excited so I AM GOING TO DO IT AND BITE THE BULLET AND FACE MY FEAR... i guess...LOL...

Well I'm sure I'm making it worse than it will be as I love the outdoors and always sleep great... I think I'm just imagining the worst...

ok.. I'm done going on... and on....

Just needed to get it off my chest...
