Today was Thursday. It
was the second day of vacation camp and hot as hell. Basically Satan called, and he’d like his
weather back. I am sweaty, sunburned,
filthy, exhausted and happier than I have been in a long time!
I just feel so productive.
This is my element. I’m at a
camp, running great program for kids. I’m
keeping them safe in the 95 degree weather.
One girl told her mom I was the “sunscreen natzi” and just kept making
her put on the sunscreen. I must have
uttered the phrases, “put on more sunscreen before you go outside,” and “drink
some more water,” at least a million times today.
Now, the MS and heat thing is a bit of a problem, but I was
more proactive about it today than I have been before. I had my cooling wrap since the wee hours of
the day. I put my vest on by 9am. We went swimming from 2-4pm, and I jumped in
and out 5 times during that time frame.
I’m happy. I feel
good. I feel productive. MS is not going to win…today anyway.
