Pre-camping

Is it really only Thursday? Seems like Friday. Or at least I wish it were. Friday I will be packing up and getting ready for our annual camping vacation to northern NH. I love this vacation more than words can say. We eat' we sleep, laugh, joke, drink, carry on, giggle, fish, hike and float. I read books, knit socks, laugh and gossip with a good girlfriend. We make sand castles with our niece, the Noodle, and teach her to get just that much braver in the water. 

This trip is bittersweet. A lot is going on "behind the scenes" at work and home, and well, we could have bad news either before or after we go. PC and I re ready for it and have been preparing, but nothing is set until its set, y'know? 

What do you pack when you go camping? Board games or cards? Knitting? Audiobooks? 

I will be blogging when I get back. Squeak in the comments if you are still reading... 

IPad blogging?

This is certainly one for the record book, I think. I am blogging via a new iPad  app and hopefully it will make me a cuter, slimmer and all around, a better dancer. Wait. I'm an awesome dancer.

Really folks, it will hopefully just get me blogging more. 

My nook color took a nose dive on a business trip to Philadelphia, requiring me to reboot, reinstall and rethink my nook. Over and over. When PC suggested I just embrace my inner gadget loving girl...how could I resist? 

Enter my new 32gb, wifi only white new iPad. Petunia. She's fairly user friendly and we love playing mancala with her. She is going on the Mini y PC annual family camping trip next week. 

 

and maybe I will get off m' duff and blog while we are there. 

Hope you're still listening.
