Turtle Power

After all these years, I still have to look at the keyboard when I type because I do not put my fingers in all the right places on the keyboard and only vaguely know the location of the keys. I can only type three things really fast, without error: sliceofpink, Janet Wallace, and the password to my email. I am worried that this is going to be a problem when I get to law school.

Perhaps more blogging is the answer! And makbe I shoulf try typing here wothout lookong at the ksyboard! Think how awesome my posts will be!

This weekend we volunteered at The Painted Turtle Camp, a camp for seriously ill children. We spent the day getting the camp ready for the campers, which mainly involved cleaning and organizing. Our group was responsible for the arts and crafts room and my husband about died in sheer joy when he was assigned the task of cleaning and organizing an entire arts and crafts shelving unit. With permission to throw out things! And to reorder the entire Painted Turtle crafting system! Dream job!

All those turtles behind us are going to campers this summer and all I can say is thank goodness I wasn't in the group that has to sew all those little guys. My sewing is worse than my typing, and we all know hof that goes.

Oh, right! Because the best way to recuperate after many hundreds of hours spent with robotics and teenagers is to volunteer at a camp! You guys are unbelievable. And I mean that in the best possible way. :)

You know, I must say this: For a lady who hasn't slept much lately, you look better than I do after a YEAR of sleep. I love turtles...but be careful - they're supposed to be great fertility boosters. (Wink. Superstition only)

Our house is on the way to the Painted Turtle! We used to fish there before Paul Newman bought it. Stop by next time! xoxo

Organizing an entire shelving unit of art supplies? Sounds like a little piece of heaven to me, too.

You do look great for having not slept much. I love the pile of turtles behind you. I suck at sewing too, but would have been to first to raise my hand for the organization job.

Wow that is so great! Are you going to be camp counselors this summer too? Have a great day!
