Thursday

Note to self: Do not let your hormones dictate how you feel about weaning. Ummm...that's not helpful. I'm pretty sure that I and I alone have been sabotaging the progress we have made on the weaning front this week, and I'm pretty sure that hormones are mostly to blame. I am also pretty sure that this is how nature ensured that babies did not die in the olden days so that the human race would carry on.

Anyway.

On the "other stuff I want to do" front, I have made some progress with my volunteer placement. On Saturday, I attended volunteer orientation at Dell Children's Hospital. I have finally located a copy of my childhood immunizations, which the hospital needs before they will let me be a volunteer. Now I need to make an appointment to get the first of two TB skin tests. I am excited to do this (the volunteer placement, not the TB skin test). It will be interesting being back in a hospital setting after 8 years.

I have also begun studying for my social work license. I don't know exactly what I want to do when I decide to go back to work, but I have a feeling that whatever I do will incorporate my social work degree more than my last job did, which was not at all.

Here's to that!
