So week 2 was far easier to handle than week 1. I am quickly learning how to turn off everyone else's drama and worry about my own sanity. The whole thing about the rest of crazy camp being able to feel is a bit weird to me. They all seem to feel in technicolour I tell ya....I simply change the subject or make up some bullshit story about my feelings.
Quite frankly, labeling feelings is not my strong suit. I knew this was the week to worry about getting pushed by the staff. The one social worker that is assigned to me has caught on and is really pushing me for answers. She won't let me change the subject at all. She makes me label things as best as I can. It's funny how I have taught my kids how to use their words to describe how they are feeling, yet I can't seem to do the same. Perhaps someone needs to come up with a series of books that teaches adults to label their feelings; you know, the Mercer Mayer equivalent for big kids?
Anyway, I was very glad to see Friday draw to an end. I left work early, grabbed my kids from their respective camps, packed up a few things for the family reunion weekend, and then headed for the hills!
It is nice to see everybody and it allows me to escape if only for a wee bit. I am a bit irritable this weekend though, as I know my hormones are a bit out of whack. Female things are such a drag. Nothing a cooler can't fix shortly though.
Crazy Camp has a two week break so I will be at work for those weeks, something I am really not looking forward to at all. The positive twist on it is that at least it will give me two weeks to practice some of the strategies they have taught me over the last two weeks.
Well, this will be a short entry as I have a seat at the pool calling my name.
