June 2013

There is not a whole lot to update on June, as I did not do much.

I began my job at the reservation north of me and began learning the ropes and meeting the children. I have yet to meet them all, but will by the end of this week. I have spent a lot of time in the crisis home, and love it. This job is a lot like nannying and is also a trauma informed, skill teaching opportunity  for traumatized children. My superiors are amazing and I'm getting to know my co-workers. It's never the same thing and often my schedule isn't even close to the same week to week.

This change and the newness of the job wear me out by the end of the week, so I use my days (or sometimes just day) off to get things done and nap. I've been reading quite a bit and spent a few mornings playing games with friends at coffee shops. I really love those mornings.

I have also made the decision to move back to CO, and am looking for a job. I don't really have a timeline or know exactly what that will look like as I have rent to pay here until the end of January. So that's something to pray about.

July holds in store more work and learning more about the job, and going on a group home wide camping trip at the end of the month. I am hoping to take a trip back to CO to see my parents' new house and need 3 or more days off in a row, so prayers for that would be appreciated. If all else fails I know I have the first week in August for a really short trip.

Books this month: A Memory of Light (Book 14 in the Wheel of Time series), Ender's Game.

Music this month: really random songs, like Rubber Duckie, songs by Kermit the Frog and there's a song called Radio Active that often gets stuck in my head and I love it.
