I'm a child most days.

This summer I have felt more than anything (right now that is) the need for me to find a balance between work and play.  You see I don't think either is more important than the other and really I feel like I'm better at the play part.  (I'm a people person).  But this summer, at camp, I had to find a good balance of both.  I don't know if I'll ever really be good at it but I like trying and figuring it out.

This morning I got up and I stretched in bed, very dramatically I might add, just for fun.  I carefully climbed down from the top bunk.  Which, when you are still half asleep seems like you are repelling down a cliff and you don't know where your next step will be because the sun is blinding you in the eyes.  When really its only a couple of feet and your eyes are still shut mostly because you forgot to open them and you're just disoriented.  Anyway...when I finally got to the bottom of the cliff I thought to myself, "what does today hold?" getting ready is a start, job searching, breakfast with a good friend, more job searching.  The usual for me these days.

I realized my days are usually a combination of play and work.  Then I looked at my wrists.  A watch on one hand and some friendship bracelets from camp on the other.  I just can't find it in my heart to part with either.  So this is how I will live my life.  A good amount of work mixed with the perfect amount of play.  :)
