Transition
I probably have mentioned we have thirteen for dinner every night with the age ranging from 21 months to 85 years old. We are an interesting mix. I am trying to think of a name for our camp so we can all keep our humor. The funny thing is I used to think I wanted to be a camp director when I was a youngling so voila! Now I am. One of the scheduling issues I am currently pondering is how to make it possible to allow for individual time for everyone. We have to all get out of our gated community every so often and then of course there is the natural result of having people around you all the time. Phew. Teaching everyone that I am not really a mind reader will probably be the most helpful strategy. Perhaps a communication board. I am open to ideas. I also wish I could find a good read on elder care and link in somehow with some people with experience. I am grateful I did get some breaks this weekend so feel a bit better about facing this coming week. I of course need to practice "run away from my laptop" to make sure I am actually keeping on top of things. So far so good. Here ends this rambling post. Input welcome.
