This morning Brek woke up with chickenpox. He has had the vaxine so hopefully it wont be a bad case like Garriks. He is itching pretty bad but it is still just the red spots, they haven't turned into blisters. According to the Dr. since he has had the vaxine they should just stay as red spots and be gone in a day or two. We will see....

My camp assistants FIL had a stroke on Sunday. She informed me yesterday that she may not beable to go to camp. Seeing as how camp is in 2 weeks that isn't exactly the kind of thing I want to hear. I'm getting a back up leader just in case. We also no longer have a trailor because we were using her in-laws trailor and he was going to drive it up for us. Unfortunatly the family doesn't feel comfortable letting someone drive it. So we are in search of a trailor. The Bishop has been wonderful and is taking charge of that issue, thank goodness. We finally got all our Priesthood leaders worked out. We need two each day at camp. It is like pulling teeth in this ward to get people to commit to anything.

This morning when I checked my email I had one from the past camp director saying that she and her past assistant were going to come up to camp and do all our cooking. She had a menu and everything that I needed to go buy. I had to call her and tell her that although I appreciate their willingness to help we have all of that covered. The old camp director went on to tell me that this has been tradition that when a new one is called the old one comes up and does the cooking. I told her again thanks for the offer but we had it covered. Anyway, is it just me or do you get bugged when people do things like that. I just found it rude for them to assume that they could just email me a menu with a grocery list and say their coming up to cook. Not asking but telling me and on the basis that this has been tradition.

On top of that they also emailed me a list of parents that want to come up during camp and hang out with their daughters. As I'm reading these emails I'm just shaking my head. Oh, camp has been so lax in the past years with the stake. They did nothing and the wards had like 5 hours each day to fill. No rotations or stake certification. This year they are doing things different (the right way, the way camp is meant to run). I explained this to last years director to help her understand that perhaps in the past we have needed moms to come up and fill in time but this year there is no time. What little ward time we do have we are using and have plans for. What I really wanted to say was: "Lady you have been released time to let go. Camp isn't for parents to come up and hang with their daughters. It is a time for the YW to get closer to the Lord and enjoy each others company." That is what I really wanted to say.

Due to what is happening in my camp assistants life, I'm having to pick up the slack. The YW Pres. has been wonderful and is helping out ALOT, but I don't want to lean on her to much because I know she has a full plate as well. Right now my Usborne business is put on the back burner. I just couldn't do it all and pay attention to my family. I've also been going up to the school these past two weeks to get things organized for the library. There is so much work and I'm beginning to wonder what in the world I got myself into.
