Gratitude List #30

1. Meeting Hattie's family on the Cape. Hattie has talked a lot about them, and they are all so amazing and kind! Had a great time getting ice cream with them.

2. Seeing my boys and A. I have worked with them the past two summers. and have missed them. Hearing them call my name is priceless!






3. Working in the bakery I worked at the last 2 summers. Not easy work, but grateful to be back there working

4. Dad. Being with dad. Even though our schedules this week aren't in synch, I am grateful for the time we have together.

5. My coworkers at the camp. We had our last day on Saturday. Since then (especially Monday) I have missed all of them. I also miss being called Caboose.

6. All the Thank You notes I got from campers. They were all amazing.

7. The summer. It's almost over! I have CA (Aka. RA) training which starts on Tuesday and I move into my room for the year on Saturday. It hasn't been an easy summer, but I really think I have grown this summer. The beginning was really hard for me, but I have learned to love myself for who I am. Maybe I will write a more detailed post, when my computer stops flipping out at me.

8. Running. Even after a long day at work on Saturday I ran 5 miles! Very proud of myself.

9. My boss Susan at the bakery. She has an amazing sense of humor and is beyond sweet. However, she is tough. Sometimes I can't stand how tough and strict she is, but I know she is making me a better worker and person. She really has taken me under her wing the last three years, and I am so grateful for everything she has done for me. I am still mad at myself for not working at the bakery this summer, but think I made a good decision to work at the camp in the end. I am working for her this week, and have been reminded  how much I love it there but how much hard work goes into the bakery.

10. Final roommate dinner with Kirsten. It's hard to believe that we are no longer going to be roommates after Saturday and that we are going to be living on opposite ends of campus. I am so grateful to have had her as a roommate these last 12 months! Every moment hasn't been easy, but we both have learned a lot about each other and ourselves as a result our friendship has grown and become even more strong.
