What a surprise. Lots of time has passed since my last post. I blame it all on facebook. It’s a great way to connect with people you have crossed paths with, but is a little scary how it has become such a norm with everyone. I knew it was bad when we were in Nova Scotia and I said to Jocelyn, “You could use that for your facebook picture!” Horrible!
I am pleased to say that I got a job working with a little guy with autism right after I finished my placement. I love it. I am so happy with my decision to go back to school to further my education and specialize in a particular area. I love what I do. I just got a promotion to lead therapist after working with him for two months. This was accompanied by a $2.00 raise which is awesome.
I had this past week off and kept myself busy with painting the spare bedroom, re-finishing an old rocking chair and starting to re-finish a dresser. I have discovered I thoroughly enjoy re-finishing furniture. It is so rewarding discovering what lies beneath and re-creating its original form. I honestly get lost in time during the process.
We have been looking at houses all over the city and even outside of the city. One minute I would love to live in the country with acreage and no neighbours and then the next minute I want to be downtown close to everything. It is really confusing and hard to figure out what I really want. We are in no hurry to move, which is a good thing so we are not rushed to make a decision, but it is fun going through open houses and trying to get a better feel as to what it is I really want. I am sure we will find what we are looking for when we are supposed to. I thought we were pretty close today, but it is a little too far from Kingston.
I have moved all of the autism information I had posted to my new business website: Kingston Regional Autism Services. It is something that I am working on developing as well and hopefully increasing my clientelle.
Talk to you soon!
