After the end of the week staff meeting, I took the dogs to the beach to go swimming and cool down and then I spent several hours laying on my couch, soaking in the peace and quiet of healthy dogs, no one needing anything from me and an overall deserted camp.
Yesterday, my mom came to camp for a visit and brought me piles of all of my favorite snacks, made me an incredible steak dinner, brought treats for the babies, gossip magazines for me, cleaned my whole house, did my laundry and allowed me to relax completely. After a stressful and hectic week, it was the absolute best way to spend a Saturday. The weather has been hotter than I have ever experienced at camp, so we brought the dogs to the beach several times and also filled a kiddie pool for them in my front yard. I spend all summer taking care of my staff, the kids, and camp stuff, so having my mom come and take care of me is such a nice reprieve.
Today is Sunday, so ordinarily kids would be arriving, but it is 4th of July, so this year, we added "Sampler week", which is a shortened version of a regular week, so kids don't arrive until Tuesday. So today is a second day in a row of relaxing and doing nothing! Glorious!!!!
