This is a daily/weekly/whenever I get the chance or need to unload/unwind/or speak my mind kind of journal. Sometimes it can be depressing (I am currently working my way through Major Depressive Disorder), I have PTSD, anxiety, and anger/rage issues that come from my time in the Army (at least the last 2.5yrs in). From the VA, Work, School, Life, Parenting or my hobbies, Almost nothing is off limits.

over acheiver... maybe a little.
I took this on the way to class today.
I was giving a presentation on the career topic " Social Workers in the Military/Veteran Setting", it was a Powerpoint but i DID NOT read slide after slide, instead I told my class we are in college they can read, im just there to give more information. I had 2 small videos in my powerpoint, I brought books, printouts, handouts, a old ACS phonebook, pictures of the veterans day parade, as well as me and my dad. I talked, a lot, in fact i went over the time requirement, but no one had any questions, the teacher didnt interrupt me at all, like she had ever person before me. >.. THIS made me worried.. So at the end of class I asked, "?Did i do ok?" she assured me i was fine, then my grade posted this evening. 100/100 Perfect score. IM glad because I need a good GPA. (Granted knowing that the teachers father was a WW2 vet was bonas)
I think i like my HUM 102 class more and more just beacuse we get to roleplay. and not to brag, IM GOOD.. like everyone compliments me on sounding/acting like a "real" therapist. But also my knack I have for getting into some crazy "client" characters that make the "helper" really think about what approch they are doing. I learn from it as well, but i do have fun.
I think Jocelyne and Balian are the cool kids at daycare... they are learning about Pilgrams and Indians (Balian made me this super cute pasta necklace), so i bring the kids TeePee to the school today for them to play with. IT was a huge success. Kids were wanting to come over for a playdate just to play with it. I was even called the Cool Mom. Next week they "perform" the 1st thanksgiving and I go take pictures.
