This week was probably the hardest yet. To be in the 4th week is hard since everyone is exhausted and the end is still far off. You're half done but theres still 3 weeks to go. Plus this week we had no work group which meant every leader on site was ready to fall over at any second pretty much all week.
God was good though and he provided helpers to us. Since so many of my staff were sick (including myself) and exhausted (also including myself) I had to call in some help from UP staff. I had 2 extra helpers on Monday, and then Tuesday the youth program canceled so I got 5 of their staff for a day.
For the trip this week we went to the science centre. This trip has been like a looming storm cloud all summer. I hate science centre trips, too many people and too many hiding places for small children. We made the best of it though and took a long lunch break and a long snack break, and tried stick together by only dividing the kids into 3 groups. All in all I only lost 1 child. (kidding).
Now there are only 2 weeks left and I have a workgroup both weeks!!!! Hallelujah! This seems much more do-able.
Today I am enjoying my long weekend and my quiet empty apartment. Maybe I can shake this cold if i sleep enough.
