Family Camp is over

Family camp rumbled to a stop on Monday morning. Everyone seemed to be in a hurry to leave the peaceful woods behind and re-emerge into the blinding sunlight glinting off of the traffic jam around them. I then spent a rousing day off doing my laundry and vaccuming my room. I am so much fun.

Handcrafts was great. I really enjoyed learning a new area and getting to spend time working with Marie again. She taught me many valuable things, such as how to start a gimp and how to embrace colour. I completed my first gimp and have begun my second, which I will be able to complete this upcoming weekend as I will be spending Grandparents camp (with only fifty-six campers!) in Handcrafts as well.

Wednesday was Bake Day and I spent a couple of hours scooping cookie dough and stacking cookies with the other staff women. Then I finally met with Phyllis and learned my weekly schedule. It was pretty much as expected, but there is some flex time in there that I will be spending doing random work. It'll be nice to have a routine, but a routine with some variety.

In other excellent news, I just got a call saying that there is a camp vehicle I can use. Maybe now I'll make it up to the office to pick up my mail.
