The Cabins have daily mousekeeping. They do a great job. The bathrooms at the comfort stations are super clean, as are the bathrooms by the pool. We never needed to shower there since we had a cabin, but I wouldn't be afraid to use them seeing how clean they are kept.

I spent 8 years in the Army (the Army has some really sketchy bathrooms!), so I wouldn't be afraid to shower in them anyway, but every single account I've read about the campground comfort stations is exactly this. Clean, tidy, and nice.

OK, I can't actually say what it feels like to have a baby. Even my being present, right next to her, in the delivery room for my two daughters can't confirm anything either since I felt nothing and have been up-close and personal twice. :angelic:

But careful examinations of the after affects of both a man cold and childbirth seem to be quite influential in determining the seriousness of the situation. I can vouch for the fact that I avoid ever catching a cold because they :eek: are awful and I know better then to want to ever have one again, :hungover: while, it seems fairly universal that women will have babies over and over and over again. If it were that bad, I'm thinking that one would be the limit for anyone with a memory and we all can agree that women never forget any bad thing that ever happened to them. That's all I have to say about that. Case closed!:):cautious:

My reply somehow didn't make it. I quoted @Goofyernmost It was:
:hilarious::hilarious::hilarious::hilarious:
I will say that since I put myself through it 4 times, it couldn't have been that bad, but I am an unusual case apparently. I must have a high pain tolerance.:angelic:

Isn't it funny how a stint in the military takes away so many concerns that are huge for the folks without that experience. It takes so much more to find things unbearable or undoable after having that experience. Maybe everyone should have a year or two of exposure to military existence.

One of my favorite activities is watching civilians eat MREs. It's amazing. But yes, quite so!

I am hoping that my daily mega vitamin doses keep me from getting ill this cold and flu season. If I make it to Spring with nothing then I well gloat about my regimen. Until then, mums the word. (Not the British mum.;))

I'm surprised something hasn't caught me sooner between all the school stuff and sitting in a doctor's office with my friend and her sick kid.

Ah, you've not been clued into the selective giving birth memory. We forget what it's like, until someone we know is expecting. Then we regale her with our horror stories about our 7 days of hard labour, constant heartburn, having to use the bathroom every 10 seconds ('cause that baby's tap dancing on your bladder) and every appendage swelling to three times its size due to water retention. And then there's the conversations about spit up and diaper changing. It's our bonding ritual....

All that, but, apparently not bad enough to be a deterrent, eh! I think women have that ability. I know my wife used to burn her arm on the upper heat elements in our oven about every third time. It would leave this ugly, painful looking slash mark on her arm. I used to say that I can understand that happening once, but, after that my brain will automatically revert to what it felt like at the time. So it is probably selective female memory syndrome.

Yeah.... women are the worst :cautious::cautious: Before you get pregnant it's all "new baby smell" and "natural high" and "reason for living" and "you'll never have experienced a love so strong" and "pregnancy glow". Then when you get pregnant and things start happening, it's all "oh yeah, that's totally normal and happened to me too!!". Leg muscles painfully seizing and spasming in the middle of the night? Normal. Can't go #2 for a week straight? Normal. Can't walk up half a flight of stairs without an asthma like breathing attack? Normal. Shooting pains like someone is literally stabbing you in your naughty bits? Normal. Acne worse than when you were a teenager? Totally normal! Forgetting every single thing ever? Normal. Hair falling out for months after birth? Somehow that's normal! And about a million other painful or embarrassing things. Thanks for the heads up, ladies :cautious::cautious:
