I never thought that I would end up blogging…not that I’m against it or anything…but I DO enjoy balling up my thoughts n’ emotions to myself pretty much. HAH…this proved to be very much so this past weekend. Anyways…I still had a blast taking the kids camping at Lake Livingston State Park this weekend. While the preparation itself was kinda "last minute" (as usual)…things were smooth riding as I headed out with 4 of the kids. I was glad Kenedy decided to come along with the "early batch" to the campsite. I don’t know how I would have survived the 1++ hour drive had all 4 passengers been girls. As much as I enjoy the opposite gender…sometimes it just bothers me to find that there are certain girls out there who can be extremely needy and demanding. What is it to them? While I’m not trying to pin down my kids…I just felt that the whole camping experience would have been a nicer one had there been no girls…or at least the needy ones. And then there are the ones who are super-sensitive and get mad at you at the slightest thing. What is it to girls!??! The whole camping turned out to be frustrating for me…having to deal with needy people…but c’mon…you’re out in mother nature…ENJOY it while you’re there…not complain complain complain! Geezzzz…it was so easy for the boys to be entertained…although I admit there wasn’t as much activities there as Huntsville. But still, you’re out in the wild…go explore…be fascinated. Not sit around all day and complain about the bugs…n’ screaming every time an ANT crawls by…or a squirrel drop bys to check you out. It’s mother nature…go enjoy the natural beauty…if a MANLY man can enjoy nature…what else the supposedly sensitive n’ delicate woman? Hmmm…or maybe they are just still too young?? Being still in school n’ all…I do wonder at times. Interestingly enough though…I realized I was not the only one sensing this the whole time…Kenedy was getting a lil’ but frustrated too n’ finding that Eric was kinda upset too after the camp. Could it be that we are just sensitive guys? Or perhaps…too demanding? Don’t get me wrong…I love these kids to death…but sometimes I just don’t get them…especially the girls. I guess life IS a mystery…n’ every day leads to another piece of solution to the maze. Huh…
