DH and I have a group of close friends we have vacationed with, spent time with for about 6 years. We used to be even closer but a few years ago one woman in the group, I will call karen, for jealous that I and another woman ( her supposed BFF) were hanging out too much.  Now this bff and I live next door to each other and Karen lives in another town and the bff and I were working out together.  Karen was invited to join us but never did. 

Long story short, tension started within the group due to Karen and we no longer spend as much time all together as Karen has made it clear she only wants to hang with her bff and her hubby.  

A few years ago the rest of the couples had bought campers (a different times) and like to spend time camping.  Not necessarily together always but a few times a year maybe.  Karen has complained for two years she feels left out because she doesn’t have a camper.  Now let me start by saying Karen has a very good job and makes probably what DH and I make together.  Her DH doesn’t make much income at all as he is retired.    So Karen is whining about all of us camping together ( maybe twice a year) without her.  

It took her two years to talk her DH into getting an RV.   Ow Karen always has to have bigger and better.  We all have modest campers that fit our needs but nothing extreme.  Nope not Karen.  That isn’t good enough.

Karen went out this weekend and bought a camper that cost more than my first home.   She paid $65000.00 for an RV that neither she or her DH know how to drive just so she can camp with her Bff maybe 3-4 times a year.   

Wth is she thinking???  She couldn’t settle for something used or more manageable just to see if she would even like camping.  Nor did she consider renting a camper for a weekend to see how she would like it! 

Nope she went straight for the big boy RV and has no clue what she is doing.

Im gonna go grab my popcorn and watch the madness unfold this summer!

Good going Karen, go bankrupt just so I won’t spend too much time one with your bfff!!!
