I have been around. Work was busy this week, as I had 4 new referrals and a bunch of meetings. I still haven't heard from the job I interviewed at, but that is ok. The more I think about it, the more I feel it wouldn't really be a good match--though it would be great place to work for, I think they want things I don't feel comfortable delivering-like research and things I don't have any clue about. I think I know I want to at least finish pursuing my clinical license which I wouldn't be able to do there. I am staying put until something better comes around. I still have two irons in the fire as possibilities, but I am just laying low.
I have been looking into being a respite care provider for special needs kids, and I have been going through the process to to this. Last night we had our home study, which while very informal, was a little daunting. At the end, we wondered how many people would allow their kids to come stay in a lesbian household. It will be interesting to see how that all pans out.
Therapy is still going very well, but hard. I am looking forward to a break when we go away in August. Enough said about that for now. I start the group for women with PCOS tomorrow and I am looking forward to that.
Meanwhile, DP and I found a very peculiar bug on our tomatoes today, and it looked something like this. Now, I implore you to google "horn worm" and look at the disgusting pictures that come up. Just looking for this picture was enough to make me want to vomit--especially the ones that have wasp larvae on them. GAG me now. I suppose at some point we will need to go out and search for more since they seem to be eating at our tomatoes. Filthy bastards . . .On another note, we have these beautiful flowers growing in our backyard. I shall leave you with this image--one much more pleasing to the eye . . .

We always called that nasty little thing a tomato worm for the obvious reason. I hated them for what they did and because they are just disgusting!
Respite care .... don't assume people will have reactions to children being in your home. I think that people with special needs kids tend to be generally more open-minded about many things. Perhaps they have seen that "normal" encompasses more than others may think.... like their own child!!
Ugh-that thing was nasty!!
I know that I assume people will think twice-and that is probably erroneous. Especially if they have a child they need to get out of their hair for a bit. I am excited. We have the fire marshal coming out tomorrow to be sure we can all evacuate if necessary and be sure we have our smoke detectors.
