Planning

I wake up in the night and my mind goes into "plan mode." My husband, 17 year old daughter and I are driving about an hour and a half away to a softball tournament on Friday. I bought water and sports drinks, goldfish, fruit snacks and pretzels. I am making buckets of ice for the cooler. Trying to make arrangements for 3 dogs, 2 cats, 1 rabbit and 3 catfish...hoping my son and daughter can take care. My husband and I will leave for home Saturday after the final game as I am scheduled to work Sunday. After work Sunday afternoon, I plan to come home drop off the car, and hop into the van with pop-up (tent trailer) hitched, and drive out to the State Park about 40 minutes away. My brother and mother and dad will be there, and I will provide much amusement as I attempt to back the thing onto the site. Never done that before and there is always the hope that my brother will take pity and do it for me. I am bringing a step ladder too so that I can reach the door on the ceiling (locks there for travel purposes). Dad and brother will probably get into the act and help me set up. Don't forget to put the jacks down this time, so tent trailer does not tip backwards. I am making lists and more lists..equipment, food, games, books, check air pressure in tires, running lights, brake lights... Can't wait to sit under a tree with a book and commune with the raccoons for a week.
