dear me.

Sweat.
That basically describes my day.
From 8:30 this morning until about 1:30 I was at a day camp in the swelter.
It was so hot and humid (90's by 9am) that The Swelter accurately describes it.

And why did I volunteer to go to camp next week?
Oh right...because I love to go to camp.
Worth. It.

Bought new shorts and a cheap-o (but surprisingly not really cheap!) bathing suit at Walmart today - which I will promptly return tomorrow. The bathing suit - not the shorts. Let's just say it wasn't what I would call flattering. Not that many bathing suits are these days on me but enough said. I will keep looking for a few days or maybe just wear my favorite one every day. Works for me.

Made a good dinner - baked chicken tenders with pecan breading, green beans, homemade mashed potatoes, super-fresh corn on the cob, and sliced tomatoes. Good summer food. Now I really want ice cream but it would un-do the evening walk that I just sweated through.

Looking forward to my upcoming schedule:
-2 half days of work surrounded by day camp (and tomorow is tye-dye day!!)
-1 day off with Chad to pack and hang out
-4 days of camp
- 1 full day of work (that includes the ever-entertaining monthly all staff meeting) - followed by...
-10 days off in a row (including those weekends) with a trip to Columbus to help paint and a couple of days in Biloxi with my parents.

It's a beautiful thing.
