As Brad worked on me, we talked about the change in the schedule for next week because of the holiday and our plans for the long weekend. Since surgery, I have not been out of the house except to go to physical therapy. On Sunday, I had plans to go out to my cousin Shannon’s house in South Lyon. This was our second annual cousin get together and I was excited! She’s not my blood cousin but we grew up together so she has always been my cousin!
Brad told me about a couple of barbecues with friends that he was going attend with his wife and how his parents were camping so he might see them over the weekend. Aside from Girl Scout camp when I was young, I only remember camping once when I was pregnant. Now, I can’t do the outside thing; being warm and bugs and stuff! He explained that his parents go “glamping” instead of camping. He described their camper which is basically a house with the fireplace in it and it needs to be pulled by his dad’s F350.
I told Brad about Shannon, Sean, and my selfies that we started taking 15 years ago when Sean was a baby before camera phones. Here is our first one:
We took another one a couple of years ago when we got together for the first time at her house.:
I told Brad that if I had to go camping, I would much rather go glamping like his parents do. As he hooked me up for ice and stim. I wondered how I would do at Shannon’s this coming weekend. Sean would be driving out there to get hours in because he just got his segment one permit. We were taking my ice packs and my pain meds with us in case my knee started to hurt. It did hurt and I got tired but before we left we had to take our annual selfie with Sean. I was really tired when we took it and it shows but I absolutely loved hanging out with my brothers and Shannon and her sister (her brother Chris couldn’t make it) and their families.
