back from camp, exhausted, grumpy, and with lots to think about

so im home for good. i cried for hours. coming back into life. back into issues. back into my stupid messed up family. back to school. back to finding the right friends, and sticking with them. back to trying my best to live for god. not to sit back and pretend like im doing all that i can for him. cody came to the cabin with me and we had some of the most amazing discussions ever. about living for god, and just parties, and friends, and school, and home, and church, and just all the issues and things we've been facing. its kinda crazy. i already miss the safeness of camp. the happy people. the biggest issues we had to deal with was not having chicken fingers come in, or running out of tomatoes, or not having power. nothing really had to be dealt with. i dealt with my depression. i learned about satan crawling into my mind and taking control of it. taking my over tiredness and using it to his advantage, instead of me giving it all up to god and letting him take care of it, and letting him use me for his will. i dont even know what to think some times. like idk. im just tired. i have so much to do. my ocd is off the wall. my knee is sore, but cody know that his cartilage is torn and has been for a long time and that's why his is so sore. and that worries me because maybe his is worse than mine. and i just want to be taken care of, but how can he take care of me whine i'll be in recovery from surgery and he'll be getting ready to go in. doesnt really make sense does it. ah! im so selfish. and i dont like it. but i still just want to be cared for. and taken care of. and right now i dont feel like caring or taking care of anyone else. so there. blah. im going to go shower. and nap. and be refreshed. and it'll be good. maybe i'll start to unpack the things i've learned this week.

here's some pictures from staff banquet (ignore the knee brace):
