I’m going camping today.<\/p>\n

To the River Red Gums<\/strong> along the Murrumbidgee and the Murray Rivers.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just me without the girls and Craig and only for the weekend. I have chest pains. I don’t want to leave my girls again and it has been so long since I’ve been camping.<\/p>\n

This is the real deal too. Deep into the bush. no electricity, no showers, no rubbish bins.<\/p>\n

I panicked this afternoon. “Oh Craig, what about when I need to go to the toilet?”<\/p>\n

“Oh Caz, you’ve done it before. Remember Mt Fansipan?”<\/p>\n

How could I forget those two squatting planks suspended above the creek?<\/p>\n

And I have to fly there on a small plane. Rex airlines- never heard of them. I’m trying not to think about it. If I drink bourbon at 10am on jumbos<\/strong><\/a>, how is the heart going to handle this one?<\/p>\n

I’m trying to turn the pains to glee thinking of kayaking and bushwalking and going to bed at sundown with an actual paper book and a decent night sleep.<\/p>\n

I can’t wait to hug one of those Gummies. It has been far too long. I like hugging trees. I like being in nature.<\/p>\n

I think the camping trip will be good for me because of that. I think my body and soul is a little misaligned because I don’t spend enough time in nature anymore. That’s the place where I feel most alive.<\/p>\n

Maybe this will help me return to my girls refreshed and rejuvenated so I can hug them a whole lot better too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
