and now Sharon's story....Re: Sharon asked for it .... warning GROSS

[Guest guest]

oh my! Your story tops me being afraid I will fall back into what I have "just done". What a horrible, horrible experience!!!! I'll bet you are really careful where you pull off now:)One time in Alaska we got our truck stuck in the bog. I couldn't get out because I would have sunk into the bog. There is no way to walk over bog. For those who don't know the bog is peat bog that can be 100 feet deep, or more. I had a cold and every time I coughed I peed. By the time I got out of there the entire truck seat was soaked completely. I was mortified! Oh what we go through, eh? But no matter what Cait's story is the worst!

Yuck, just remembering it gives me the willies. In winter that spot would have a couple of hundred dead deer dropped there. I guess for a rotting ground??? Whatever, this is summer and "I gotta go NOW" so pulled off on the little turnoff. Holly Hobbly aka me quickly gets out, pulls my pants down, squats, starts to pee and then realizes there is most gawd awful stench and I'm being swarmed with flies! A few feet in front of my was a dead very much rotting deer with flies coming out his eye sockets.

So I quickly try to stand up and fall over, throw up and then "help I've fallen and I can't get up"! gets out, comes over and goes ... 'ewwww what did you do' while I'm stuck on the ground.Yes with wet pants and shoes.

Now what's everyone having for supper lol?

Cait....Now I'm curious about your stop in MN. I know what you mean about squatting because I can't do it either. Well, I should say I can squat but I have one heck of a time getting back up. I am always in fear I will land my butt in what I just did:) Then later my knees are mush and I can barely stand.

Hey that's okay with me Sharon . I've littered your side of the border too. packs a bunch of old towels. Not sure if it's the ms or age but when my bladder says 'go', it is the boss. I've noticed I've lost quite a bit of feeling doing Keigels (sp?)

And I sure hope to come back as a man since getting back up after squatting is next to impossible for me now, Or I used to sit on my foot to help hold it ... can't do that any more either. I'll save you the gory details about my 'stop' at a MN deer road kill spot!

Oh wow, what an award to win ROFL. I decided that the olden days were right. Women wore no pants or undies just dresses and had fewer uti's, okay more kids <g>. But travel in summer or if we make it to Arizona this winter is going to be wearing sundresses. And I'll be an old brazen hussy cause I won't be wearing any underwear!

And then I can pee as good as any man!

in the mountains when you hike - get off the trail and squat - quite an art really - slope of the ground etc - I got quite good at it - I made sure someone checked to be sure I wasn't squatting near poison something
