Good news: My kids have finally calmed down and don't hate me. It's really nice to come back to a nice quiet bunk and children who re happy to see you than ones who hate your guts.
Better news: I'm most likely being promoted when I come back next summer, I think they want me to be Assistant Head of the GRC, which makes me so happy I can't even contain myself, you have no idea! It really makes me feel like my hard work is paying off (of course, my hard work with the kids pays off when I see changes in their behavior, but I'm talking about all the organizing and planning and good ideas that I contribute to the group that I never thought a lot of people paid attention to...)
Bad news: I have a concussion. Yes, finally, I have succeeded in giving myself a concussion. I hit my head pulling myself up on the monkey bars. Before you laugh, the monkey bars are a lot lower in Leff Playground than in the other playgrounds because it's the playground for 4-6 year olds. Saw stars, was walking funny, had no peripheral vision, and people kept having to repeat themselves. However, it wasn't severe enough to warrant the hospital, thank God. I've been taking ibuprofin like WHOA and hoping no one at camp called my mother to inform her, because she will flip like no tomorrow.
Worse news: Dad finally moved out and guess who is currently driving the car tbat I always drive? The homewrecker herself has borrowed my car. Don't even ask what I had to say to my dad about that when I called him. I used my "firm voice" on him and treated him like a camper basically. He was not pleased but oh well.
I hope everyone has had a great summer, I feel so out of the loop half of the time because I never get reception and can't really talk to people.
Roommates: Is there anything I need to get before school starts? You can leave it in a comment and I'll comment back to you and let you know what's going on!
Much love!
