So, we're going to have a lot of new ones, friend. This one is by our friend Karen over at the Faithful Dash. This one should save us 1 2 3 4 5 dollars.
Super cute. I'm not really like a camping kind of person. I love nature, but I just don't like to be without electricity and all that stuff. It freaks me out cuz I feel like what if there's like skinwalkers or something going to happen? I don't know, guys. I just started thinking the worst, I know.
Um or like bears. Like, I don't know. It just really freaks me out. So, you guys are like, "What the hell, Gloria?" But, yeah, guys. I don't know.

So, you know what I'm saying? Like, I don't know. It just freaks me out, friends. I just think I don't know.
Um we have gone uh fishing. Not fishing. Well, we did go fishing, but we ended up going uh camping one time. I'm never going to forget this, friends. Good thing they did have showers and stuff like that, but um >> [laughter] >> Probably I've told you guys this story.
It's kind of embarrassing.
Um my sister-in-law has jet skis, and we ended up going to the lake. So, we ended up I remember we camped out that time.
Um so, you know, making food and stuff like that is kind of like a hassle, even though we took our little stove. But, I'm never going to forget that trip because um my husband does not know how to swim, guys. And he we went on the jet ski, and he thought like he was so cool.
Um he's going to kill me, but um yeah.
He thought he was He thought he was so cool and Okay, so we're going to start here. And I think we have everybody's challenges. Yeah. So, he thought he was so cool, guys, and he ended up going um he ended up going fast on the jet ski.
And I just remember that we were going so fast, whatever, and then we just flipped. And I remember as soon as I hit the water, guys, I know I pee my I peed myself. I said, "Oh my god, like a crocodile's going to come and grab me."
like or or something they're going to drown me from, you know, the bottom. And then my husband um he panicked and the whole time instead of him trying to get me up, you know, because he doesn't know how to swim, he panicked and he's like, "Gloria, Gloria." And I said, and I'm there trying to help him get on the jet ski and then I'll get on. But yeah, guys, he freaked out. It was so funny cuz I freaked out, too, but he was worse than me, but it was just so funny. I'm never going to forget that trip. That was hilarious, but um yeah, guys. I think that was the last time we ever went camping. Like we've gone to Sequoia where like the beautiful like big trees are. It's just Oh my goodness, guys. If I have a picture, I'll insert it here.
But um Um Sequoia is beautiful, guys. If you guys ever come to Sequoia, because it's just so magical. It's like you're going to a whole 'nother like world like you think about I don't know, like like a fairy tale.
Yeah, it's so nice.
