What have you been up to so far this weekend? This weekend marks the last weekend before I end my first year internship as a masters level student in social work. Woohoo! I made through the first, yet challenging year of being a practicing social worker. I am so amazed that I am still here standing. Carrying the load of mother, student, and many other titles has left me sometimes very depleted. What I can say is, I am happy to end this chapter and focus on some things that I have been neglecting, like rest.
The best part is as one door closes, another opens. I was offered a clinical position at the outpatient side of the same organization, which makes it all so amazing. As I gear up to say “See you later,” to all the clients and colleagues I have built relationships with, I can take comfort in knowing that this is not truly the end.
Today, I happened to go in to a Planet Fitness for a quick workout, for the first of what I hope will become many. I got a great instructor who was really kind to show me the ropes and how to achieve the best results.
My adventures on Threads are becoming a nice addition to my life with the most random posts that get people’s attention. The latest starts like this. “My elementary school aged kids have told me that some of their classmates got bed at 11:30pm and later.” All I can say is, read some of these comments.
I’ve been slowly reading The Parable of the Sower and goodness me. I just have no words for it. Just borrow from your local library or use their app Libby for easier access.
If you haven’t started watching Testament, please start now. I am into dystopian content of any form, so this occupies my reading and viewing content.
Enjoy what you have left of the weekend.
