Tetris and Diabetes

I got back from diabetes camp on Saturday. I was the senior counselor for the 12-year-old girls and I fell in love with all ten of the them (yes, there were ten and yes, I was exhausted). I miss everyone so much, already.

The picture above (courtesy of Marci) is from the camp dance--this year, the theme was "Blast from the Past." So fellow counselors, Kat, Jacob, Marci, Duffy, and I decided to dress up as Tetris pieces.

As you can see, I was the green square. And the five of us didn't really fit together at all. But I think it turned out looking sweet (and we were pretty much celebrities at the dance--everyone wanted a picture with us assembled together)...












How are we possibly going to top this next summer?

Korelitz Krew

Yesterday, we had our staff training session for Camp Korelitz. I loved seeing some of the diabetic and NDs (non-diabetic friends) I haven't seen in a year. And sitting around the round table with a few of them, checking our blood sugars for lunch, laughing at those who were low (me) or high.

I can hardly believe that this summer will be my fourth as a counselor at Korelitz. I'm getting paid this year for the first time, too! Not a lot--but I don't care.

It's one the best places ever. I'll be working here until I'm an old ass woman.
