Well, everybody. It has been one hell of a overwhelming summer. I didn't blog about this yet, because I didn't have the right words, but for a number of different reasons, I decided to move back home with my parents. So far, I think I made the right decision. Another puzzle has come up. My apartment puzzle has been completed. My next puzzle? Traveling. I am going to be traveling a lot for my musical and presentations. How will I get from place to place? (I refuse to fly with my power wheelchair.) How do I work it with my assistants? I'm not entirely sure, but I am open to any suggestions you might have.
Two weeks after I moved home, I was off to Camp Chatterbox, a camp in New Jersey for kids who use augmentative communication. Highly recommend it if your child uses a communication device. I was a mentor there. I helped the campers use their devices more in their therapy sessions, as well as gave a presentation to the parents and therapists. I only hope I helped as much as I had fun.
Camp Chatterbox is my favorite place on earth. Outside of camp, everybody who doesn't know me doesn't know that I type with my head, so when I don't answer right away, they probably think that I can't answer. At Chatterbox, everybody knows what a DynaVox is. Everybody knows what I am doing with my head. Everybody knows to be patient with me. Not to mention the awesome awesome awesome people I meet there.
Tonight I am just going to relax and watch The Fault in Our Stars. It's out today. YEY.
