I have been on vacation for the past two weeks and I suppose I needed to take the time to organize. I chose to spend my vacation on me and my family. I played with my son and our dog. We went for walks and shopping. I did laundry and dishes as needed. I suppose I needed to take the time to vacuum though I really unlike the vacuum cleaner that we have and I like playing with Jaedon and Poppy rather than vacuuming. I enjoyed my vacation. It was fun and relaxing and I was able to play catch-up with my emotions. I shut myself down for a time and plowed through what I needed to plow through to finish business and graduate. Paperwork still needs to be sifted through and will still be there another day. This day has come to it's end and another day is coming. Perhaps this will be the day, I become better organized.

Working Part-time during the Summer

I have been taking my time adjusting to motherhood, schooling and working. After starting my Master of Arts in Counseling 4 1/2 years ago, I have now graduated and am done with school for good though still learning though different venues other than the classroom which is very exciting for me.

Internships

I'm working on two internships in the same semester. In order for me to gain my LLPC (Limited Licensed Professional Counselor), I need to complete 600 hours. The seminary that I am completing my Master of Arts in Counseling breaks down these 600 hours in two internships so the student needs to complete 300 hours in per internship with 120 client hours and 180 support hours. I'm doing both so I need 240 client hours and 360 support hours. One internship is giving me more client hours than the other so if I can get 240 client hours in one internship then I will be able to get my support hours in the other internship.

Am I feeling disorganized? Yes, I am because my house is a wreck once again and my son's toys need to be gone through as he has outgrown some of them. Plus some of his books also need to be packed away as well. Am I feeling overwhelmed? Yes, I am because I'm working about 41 hours a week and my husband has been putting in about 50 hours per week. Needless to say, quality time has been lacking though my son has not been neglected and he loves his daycare provider so that helps greatly.
