I spent Thursday at the dreaded dentist. Well, the periodontist. My teeth are jacked. So jacked. So I gave the periodontist a lot of money and he gave me lots of drugs. So, I think it is a fair trade. Ryan took all the kids except Finn camping so I could go home after my appointment and get
stoned rest. My fabulous friend, Angela, offered to take Finn while I went to my appointment. To be honest, I think she uses me for my Finn. Sure, she likes me, but it’s Finn she really loves. And to be fair, he is a stinking cute kid, it is difficult to not LOVE him. Anyway, so I come home tired, hurting- yet feeling so good- and a little lonely. I know that I should use the weekend (They left Thursday and plan to come home on Saturday night) to rest and recuperate. Do some things around the house.
I laid in bed Thursday night in my quiet, quiet house. I didn’t know what to do with my self. So in the morning I did what any wife and Mom might
not normally do…I woke up, packed and took a drive with my Finn (when I picked him up from Angela, Brooke, her daughter, thanked me for letting them borrow Finn…sweetie…) to Ponderosa Campground just outside of the mildly cooler Payson, Arizona. Um, and by mildly cooler I mean 95° instead of 110°, but I will take it. So I showed up and surprised my kids and husband who was here with his whole family. The kids were excited, Ryan was surprised, to say the least, and I was so happy I decided to do it.
So here I am, really roughing it with my computer and Diet Dr. Pepper with Cherry and vanilla. And yes, I am still stoned…

Wow I think you are the weirdest coolest person. I would KILL for some time alone but it's so COOl that you went anyway. Hope you have a blast.
I am sure glad you decided to come up. It was much more fun with you around (I'm convinced my parents and siblings like Linsey better than me).
It makes me happy to know you love me enough to go camping...I know it's not your first choice of weekend activites.
LOL
So you've figured me out.
I am also using you for your Ethan, Tyler, Calvin and Sunny.
Sorry to break it to ya. ;)
Oh Linsey. You are too cute. Only YOU would take your one day off and go find your family. Such a good mama. ;)

Sounds perfectly lovely!! Have a wonderful time!
You are a better person than I am.
I would have stayed home and been stoned for days while the family was away.
Sleep is something I completely enjoy!
Hey Linsey it's funny you found my blog through Mandy, cause I found yours from looking at hers and have to say that I look at it quite often. What you have to say it pretty funny.
I love reading your blog because it inspires me to enjoy my children more.
Isn't it funny how we long for some peace and quiet, but when we get it, we get bored of it fast?!
I hope you had fun camping!
LOL you are to funny!
