This week was long. I think there was one week too many on this summer vacation. There was much fighting and whining going on here. I'm excited for school to start tomorrow. And the kids are too. They all went to their orientations last week and met their teachers and saw their classrooms. Rachel seems the most apprehensive so far, but she did awesome last year when she started kindergarten and her best friend, Jaclyn, is in her class, so hopefully she'll get there and feel fine tomorrow. The kids all got blessings tonight. I think that helped ease their worries and mine. I'll miss them, but it'll be nice for them to be happily engaged in school again.
This weekend we went camping to celebrate the end of summer. We went to Cathedral Gorge in the middle of Nevada. It was still a little too hot for camping there, so we pretty much had the place to ourselves, but it wasn't too bad because there was a natural spring there with a pool and playground, so we hung out there in the heat of the day. We grilled hot dogs for dinner and made smores at night. They all slept pretty well, despite being sweaty for the first hour or so until it cooled off. Then the next day we did lots of exploring and climbing. And we ended the trip with a slurpee.
My back is doing quite well this week. The blessing really helped. And I've been stretching a lot. And I was able to go swimming and to yoga without any problems.
