another hunting weekend

Do you know what I would give to have my water break at about 3 or 4pm today? Wisconsin Rifle season starts tomorrow morning. The grocery store was a zoo with men and carts full of liqour and junk food- the parking lot was even scarier because they suck at parking. Chris is leaving this evening to go about 1.25 hours away hunting.

So.. here's the distance... 1.25 hours away from house- probably 1.25 hours from hospital- not driving directly past the house- if he drove home first and got me, it is about another hour to the hospital. So, I am planning to line up some help for time while he is gone, just incase I go into labor.... someone for B and someone for me!

This best get that hunting out of his system for the season. Someone needs to wash the floor and vaccum the carpets! I can do about everything else, but vacuuming pulls at my round ligiments so much, and the washing the floors.... moving stuff.... ugh... havent dont that in months!

I shipped off Chris yet again to go hunting. This time MUCH closer then 10 hours away! He will be just 1.5 hours from me... and about 2 hours from the hospital if need be. As much as I want to go hunting, laying around sounds much better to me for the weekend.

For the first time since I went to Europe in 2000 I am not hunting. I have been going since I was somewhere between 12 or 14. Not sure the exact age, but if you ask my dad he will remember my first time hunting with him..... we just got into the tree stand, and I felt sick! Excited? nerves? Dont know, but I thought I was gonna yak! Of course I couldnt leave the tree, so I put my head down and rested for a while.

Hunting to me is time with Chris, my dad, my brothers. At hunting camp the guys do all the cooking! It is great. Hopefully the grandma's can do some baby sitting in the future so I can still do a little hunting. I hope our kids, both boys and girls, will enjoy hunting too.
