i really really really hope i have this job. i've interviewed with one family so far. they were so nice and it's really good when parents have a firm grasp on different treatments and programs for their special needs child.
i find out tomorrow if they thought i was a good match for them and their daughter and if so, i go and meet the girl next week some time. then, from there i go to the school with the case manager, learn her plan and then start working.
I also have the opportunity to work with another client, but a young woman instead of a young teenager. Both have mild m.r., but are higher functioning and not so inclined to behavioral issues.
This is what I really want to do. The money for this type of work is never going to be amazing, but the love for it usually outweighs it.
I also got some not-so-good news about my health this morning. I wonder if all these years of not eating fruits and vegetables have finally caught up to me.
I have endometriosis, a lump on my thyroid and some other weird thing i don't wanna write cause noone really wants to hear more about my girly parts.
Heather is coming up from Ma. this weekened on sunday. I'm working until 7 on saturday night. Maybe one of my newbury friends will wanna hang out or something since jason is going home to Ma.
also, I'm thinking of getting a table at the boston zine fair but not so sure. I'd have to bust my ass to finish stuff but I think it would be a great way to network, get writing out there, meet people, etc.
oh ya, i gotta go on "the pill" ew.
i hate my insides.
love,
