camp

Camp is amazing for both girls! 4 has recovered from her disappointment at not playing the lead in Mary Poppins and has learned her lines for her 2 parts - a princess (?) and a bird. She is still considering what kind of bird she will be - a bird with soft wings? or a pidgeon?

6 had arrived back at my office more exhausted each day. They are very physically active at her camp - she has experienced rock climbing , archery, canoeing, and has a daily swim lesson and free swim. She has made friends! This is amazing for my socially challenged, intense little person! Her only negative comments were that she is alone in swimming lessons as all the other kids are 4 levels lower than her. I don't mind the private lessons, but to be singled out, even for a strength is an issue for her...

Thank goodness for the positives at the end of the day. The middle part is taxing. Have been keeping a log of all issues unsupported and unaddressed by the boss. Will take it to the exec team when I have a substantial case to present. I hate this.

just stopped in to say hello!

I think of you .. and your work situation.. I have worked in an imitation of hell myself.. no fun

Hope the boss gets abducted by aliens along with a few others .. ( ever hopeful, I have a list )

although I do have some sympathy for the aliens, and frankly feel its up to them what they do with the folks after zooming off with them..
