Catching up - nothing revolutionary or that interesting
I've started work- I went in on Wed, Thur, Friday and today. I am geting trained in trauma focused CBT - and I think I am going to get the oppurtunity to co-facilitate group therapy. I have also been told that I can start doing inpatient adolescent assessments for the borderline personality study. I also signed up to be a facilitator for SAVI training.
I am trying to figure out my schedule for the fall- I am going to have a lot of balls to juggle this fall. Job, brain and cognition lab until we get a paper out, borderline personality group, 4 classes at school and one class non-matric on eating disorders given by one of the people speaking for the film project, and applications. And I still want to try to exercise 3-5 times a week and start production on the film. I think I do better with intense schedule and lots of things to do- I guess we'll see how I do this fall. I hope it is invigorating and that the stress inspires me to be productive. There wasn't enough being production this summer.
Lots of family time this weekend- Will and Meg left for Israel yesterday and we all hung out Shabbat and sat night. Now that they are gone and family responsibilities are done for a while so it is time to hang out in my apt. I went to dinner on Thursday with Stella (was on call and rape deterrence status remains intact) and I walked to my favorite Soho coffee place on Friday before I went to work. It is so great to be back in my space and my life. I think I had a better time (less anxious) with my family after that week's posting. I wasn't trying to see my siblings as perfect or as my relationship with them as perfect either. I just saw things how they are and appreciated them in that way.
I was invited to Chicago for Lauren and Holden's engagement party this weekend but I decided to stay in NY and attend Elle's party and spend time with my friends for a bit.
