Now some of my readers may remember this story from our youth. Sad I guess I'm not in my youth anymore. When I was in my youth I set out for yet another Girls Camp with my good and loyal friends. I believe this particular camp was...hum I have no idea actually where we were at. I do remember lots of trees and a rather steep path down into our camp site. One day while walking on this path with some of my buddies we run into a pile of poop. Gross yes. Now here is where I wish I was A(you know who you are) to tell this story. She would have giving it justice.
Okay skipping right to the point because I can't remember how this happened but we all found out who left that pile of poop in the middle of the main trail. It was another girl in my ward who shall not be named but pretty sure most of you can figure out who it was. Yes you heard me right. She needed to relieve herself so decided that "Hey why not right here in the middle of the trail where everyone walks. Looks good to me and I have no shame should someone come upon me in the middle of my act of leaving droppings like a common forest animal."
Well the story went around and the leaders heard and decided that someone needed to remove the poop. Now I would think that they would choose the girl who left it there but no they decided "Hey lets have the Kjar girl take care of that mess. She seems like a perfect person to clean up someone else's poop ". That is just what happened. I was nominated to clean up this other girls poop who by the way was older than me. Not only did I have to clean it up they were so kind as to give me the pooper scooper award on the final night where they give awards to all the girls. What a slap in the face. Here other girls were getting best smile award or most caring award. No I get the pooper scooper award which everyone laughed not. I have to wonder now that I'm an adult what were these leaders thinking and did they just not like me?
I did not realize at the time that this particular event was preparing me for a lifetime of official poop duty. When I married Will he already had a dog. I point this out because I wonder how this dog survived without me. Since we have been married I am in complete control of all bodily needs and functions of the animals and children in my home.
Everyday I go into my backyard and clean up poop from two dogs. If I did not do this the poop would remain where it was dropped. Yeah for me I have lived up to my pooper scooper award that I received as a child. Yeah for me!
