Camping Prep 2009

I'm preparing for my second annual camp trip and went to Target this morning. I did this last year as well (See Target - Love/Hate Relationship). I didn't get into quite as much trouble this year but did acquire the following in preparation for facing the great outdoors:

1. Starbucks Frappucinos (nor really a requirement for camping, but while everybody else is having fresh brewed coffee Bailey's; I'll be drinking my Fraps)
2. 2 Repel Citronella Candles (one of which I will carry around with me at all times)
3. Repel Sun & Bug Insect Repellent with Sunscreen
4. Twin pack of Coppertone Sport SPF 30 sunscreen (will be applied liberally in hopes of not getting any horrific burns this year)
5. Aveeno SPF 30 Facial sunscreen (also to be slathered well on the ears and the hair part... learned lessons in the past)
6. Energizer Weather Ready 3 in 1 flashlight
7. Energizer LED Headlight

So, I'll be well slathered down with sunscreen and bug spray and while I may look like a giant geek with a headlight, I'll be able to find my way in the dark and keep my hands free to catch myself when I fall, which I'm certain I'll do at least once during the upcoming week.

We head out on Wednesday and I'm really looking forward to just spending some quality time sitting by the lake or on the boat and relaxing.... lots and lots of relaxing...

Target - Love/Hate Relationship

I Love Target... It is like a little mecca for me. Sadly, it is also the bane of my existence. I stopped in there last night to grab a couple of things in preparation for the camping trip. This is my list that I went for: 

Sunscreen

Bug Spray

Batteries

Flashlight

What I ended up getting: 

Sunscreen

Bug Spray

Batteries

Flashlight

Two T-Shirts

Two Tanktops

Pair of Yoga Pants

Gum

Cookbook

Mascara

Booklight

Bandaids

Purel

Beach Towel

A Duffel Bag

Small Fan

2 Pairs of Cheap Sunglasses

Gel Pens

Yeah, I know, that was just the crazy shopper in ABBA. And just so you know, I'm returning the t-shirts, tank tops, duffel bag, and cookbook. Once I got home I decided that I didn't REALLY need any of those things....

Wish me luck on the camping trip!!
