I love fridays, but I love Friday the 13ths better!!!
Something
 good always happens to me...today me and my neighbor are going to watch
 "Message In A Bottle" starring Paul Newman. And it is 
raining....something I love....and get good luck in......so now I have 
doubly good luck!!!! I feel bad for the people who get bad luck 
though....our gardeners came and did our yard and half way through it 
started pouring rain......they were soaked to the bone in 5 minutes.
So
 far nothing bad has happened to me but there is always room for that to
 happen. For instance my neighbor just called me saying she can't watch 
the movie with me she has to go to her shop......but we will watch it 
some other day.....in the meantime I will watch "The Sting" another Paul
 Newman movie.
So why the fascination with Paul Newman you might 
ask??? Well I am a medical kid and I cant go to camp...that is a normal 
camp. Paul Newman saw that there were many kids throughout the US that 
had medical disorders that kept them from going to camp. He decided to 
help. He created "The Hole in the Wall" camp. It enabled kids to go to 
camp free of charge and be around a full medical staff and do things 
that they normally wouldn't be able to do.
Last year I went to the
 Painted Turtle...it is another Hole in the wall camp 40 miles north of 
Los Angeles. It was fabulous!!! I had the best time...made many new 
friends and did things I never would have done elsewhere. I have a 
phobia of rope ladders and tightropes because there flimsy and they add 
on to my fear of falling. They had a high ropes course and that's what 
we did the first day. I had known one of the guys volunteering, from my 
hospital and his name is Pun, and he knew of my fear and what time I'd 
be doing the high ropes. He came and encouraged me while I did it...he 
kept saying " look a pi in the sky!!!" (we had decided my name for the 
week was 3.14159265, the first few digits of pi) Pun helped me across 
the tight rope and gave me a big hug when I came down.
I have 
signed up for the camp again this summer from July 3-7...over the fourth
 and my birthday! Well that is it for this text I have 25 min to clean 
up the kitchen or I'm in trouble.
TTYLXOX!!!!!!!!
