Summertime...
And the livin' is easy.
That is somewhat true for me. I do have to do a summer packet for Algebra II Honors that I didn't get around to starting until yesterday. Don't worry, I'm already about 20% done.
Well, the two weeks of the camp I volunteered at went by very quickly. After a few days it cooled down, but by the end it started to heat up again. I volunteered at an Outdoor Skills center. What the girls did at this center was learn about various outdoor skills, such as compass reading, putting up tents, fire starting, match lighting, and a program called Leave No Trace. After camp Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday I went with my mom to the pool.
On the Junior (rising 4th, 5th, 6th graders) Overnight a week ago I stayed overnight to help a unit do their fire for dinner, and then I helped the camp directors put together the DVDs with the pictures from the camp on them. Then I took a shower (I was staying in a lodge) and went to sleep. Friday, since I was there early I was put to work doing inventory for 8 cooking tubs that the camp has. Since I worked at a center so therefore wouldn't have any girls to look after, that job took up most of my day. The other part was spent eating lunch, attempting to finish swapping at the end of the swap meet, and attending the camp talent/awards show (that's where all the campers get to learn the staff members' real names!!! I think it is their favorite part next to the two weeks!!!).
Last weekend I helped my dad weed and I don't remember what I did on Sunday. Monday my mom and I started to clean out my closets (I have a closet with games, etc), and went to the pool. Tuesday I had an orthodontist appointment, and my mom and I went to the mall for shopping and her hair appointment. Wednesday morning my mom and I finished cleaning out my closets. Now the stuff we cleaned out is on my floor, but I will be putting an end to that. Early yesterday afternoon we ran some errands, then went to the pool in the late afternoon. Today I worked on my packet and am now surfing. I probably will go to the pool again today, but I don't know what else.
In a couple of weeks I will be going down to South Carolina to visit some of my dad's relatives. The last weekend in August I will be making a trip with my family to West Virginia to visit with some of my Mom's relatives - one of her relatives is turning 80 and everyone is organizing a party at a restaurant for her!!!!
I'll stop rambling. Thanks for reading.
