So this week I started working at a Private Agency as a Foster Care Case Worker...
It has become apparent that almost 80% of what I learned while in college has already left my brain. I'm in training for 9 weeks and I'm just hoping & praying that everything comes back to me in that time, haha. I'm just having trouble recalling specific therapy types & structural things. All in all though I'm very excited to have a job in the social work field vs. child care.
Add in the holidays to my new job and let's just say I'm BEYOND stressed. Now, if you know me you know that the holidays just arent my thing. It's not that I'm the "grinch" or anything buttttt coming from a divorced family, the holidays for me meant, splitting up to three different families every year. While some may thing this is great, keep in mind this means limited time with each family and one parent was always unhappy with the situation. WELL, at 24 not much has changed. I'm expected at all three families houses for Thanksgiving & Christmas and one parent is always mad with how I split the time. Is it possible that I can just skip to January and ignore all things holidays? & Having a boyfriend this year is putting a kink is my normally easy holiday shopping.
WHEW.
anyways..
Anchors Away,
