My volunteering.. topic jumping..


Guest

359 views

I started my new volunteering job. I am tutoring a few kids 2 days a week, out in the hall, at our neighborhood school. I really enjoy it, and it makes me think, maybe my passion for teaching may still be there buried deep inside a damaged brain. I like the familiarity of the school system.

 

I sent off last month, for my hospital records, and got them in the mail last Friday. It was a big deal, reading the typed information about myself in the notes, and seeing, what the docs wrote about me. I read, where I gained 8 pounds in one week in rehab.

How?? I have no idea. It's not like I loved their food, maybe lack of excersize and water retention?? I don't care, it's in the past now. I read where my nuero psych chick listed the battery of tests, that were used when she screened me. I have to take a nerve pill everytime I look at the papers, b/c it brings back a nightmare I like to pretend didn't happen. I may have to take one, just thinking about the papers.

 

DD has a dentist appt. today, long over due for one. I thought I better hurry and get it done before dental hygeine month comes and that way I 'll look like I am on top of things. WE have no dental insurance that is one of my reasons for putting it off. I hope it's not too $$. Oh well, it is worth it.

 

I know this blog jumped around lot in topics, but, thanks for hanging in there with me.

hey Amy:

 

its so wonderful that you are volunteering in school system, I want to do it too, but right now I will have to be content with volunteeringin his school activity, as soon as my driving comes I will get my degree evaluated and maybe become substustute teacher or something, but I m very happy for you, you are best mom keeping tab on activity in school, I am trying to become good mom, I think amy even though you would like to think otherwise once a teacher is always a teacher, and don't read those eval reports, its all past you are way ahead in a game now, y worry about past, u have proved them all wrong anyways. I started volunteering in Ashay's sunday school kind of classes where they do arts and crafts prayers and stuff. I thought of telling stories but I sucked big time last sunday, I need to do better job in it, my reply is also jumping all over the place

 

cheers

I would have loved reading about what was said about me. I'll bet it was a doozie. For starters - why is she 275 miles away from home when she had her stroke there and she didn't call 911 because her little dog would have run away? To this day, I wonder when I had my discharge appt. with the neurosurgeon and he was briefly reading the chart, he said- "Oh you're thr one with the little dog" roflmao.gif
