Grateful for Fall

So I have been enjoying my drive up to work every day! I am grateful to have a job, and especially a job in a place that I love to be--Aspen Grove! It is a bit of a drive, but every day I feel renewed and refreshed as I feel I am engulfed in magnificent creations! It isn't the most glamorous job--today I mowed lawns, cleaned bathrooms, and assembled lamps (?!) but at least I am learning fun things right? I even got the lawn mower stuck in the fence and it took me 20 minutes to get it out. haha. Besides getting almost attacked by a few snakes, hovered on by many bees (which I am terrified of, and oftentimes have to remind myself to just be still like my dad used to tell me!...but this will be good right, maybe I will get over my fear and then I won't have kids who are terrified of bees), developing man-hands I think....or at least they will be soon, and having lots of fun with cleaners, I have been able to be outside and learn a lot of great things. I enjoy having a walkie talkie, and its great that even the camp director works right next to us--it's not like there is a hierarchy there. I mean, of course there are leaders and they tell us what to do, but they do exactly the same things that we do. I had no idea how much work it took to run a camp!
Don't worry, I am not planning on doing this the rest of my life. But at least for now as I prepare for Grad School and need to refill my bank account, it is a job, and I am grateful to have it for now. Let me know if you hear of anything else too ;)
