Good morning!
Is my brain any better today? I think so! However, that ain't sayin' much.
I had to check and double-check the day and date this morning. It feels like I am even more out of touch than usual. The crazy heat isn't helping since it seems hard to reconcile that we only officially started summer a couple of days ago. Not to mention, I was complaining that it was so cold just last week.
Since it was too hot to be outside, we did all of the camp training inside. I did some of it last year but since I am running the mini-camp, I legally have to go through all of it. That's fine, it is always good to reinforce rules and regs, especially since Camp is licensed differently than the field trips and HS programs.
At the end of the session, I walked down to one of the "renovated" cabins. It was used as a preschool classroom a few years ago but now it is empty. Lauren asked if I wanted to take it over, use it as an indoor area for my programs. It has one large room and a small foyer area, electricity and access to water outside. It needs a good cleaning (walked right into a spiderweb as soon as I opened the front door, ppppttthhhhh)
I have a couple of toy tables in my attic that I can bring, and will start scouting around for small rugs and stuff to sit on. I don't think I'll have it fully ready by the camp dates but for HS in the Fall-- it should be a nice area. *crossing fingers and toes*
When I got home, I spent time cuddling and loving on Mouse. She is sadly not doing well and Caitlyn is going to see if she can bring her to the vet this afternoon for euthanasia.
She is beating herself up over every decision she made and has to make. I tell her that there are no right or wrong decisions, only ones that are "least sucky." I always wish this part would get easier but it doesn't, not when she loves her babies with all of her heart.
I am cleaning for my friend this morning-- or at least as much as I can do. She suggested I come another day but I don't have a free one this week. I'll do as much as I can, drink as much water as I can and see what I can accomplish.
Blergh. Not looking fwd to the day.
Love and hugs, my dear friends!
