Conference

Tomorrow I am attending a Journaling conference for social work license credits.  I haven't done anything with social work in the last year since I went on bed rest with the twins.  I now have 11 months to get a total of 25 credits.  That doesn't sound bad, but I need to find the time to attend a conference and the money to pay for it.  When you are working, you tend to have more options for free CEU programs and finding the time is much easier.  I now need to plan a babysitter for the whole day, usually my mom around her schedule or give her plenty of time to get her schedule in order.

I am really looking forward to this conference.  I signed up for it back in the middle of August and felt like it would never come, but here it is.  Even though I can't wait to go to this conference, this will be the first time that I have left all 3 babies for a whole day.  I've gone out for a couple of hours, either alone or with my husband, but never from 7:30 am til probably 5pm.

This will be an interesting day!  I get to be around my social work peers and I get to see how it would be if I were to be working 8 hour days.  Thankfully, it is only 1 day and I get to go back to being a SAHM which I love.  It will be nice though, to be around other social workers for a little bit and see if I still enjoy being a social worker!

Life is crazy,
Amy

  1. How did it go? I hope you had a great day and didn't spend too much time worrying about the kids.

  2. It went really well except for the trip home! I was stuck on the green line just before gov't center for at least 1/2 hour. I only called home once, and once my husband was out of work, he got a little taste of what it's like with 3 alone. I'm not sure that i could do it everyday. Getting dinner together for everyone was tough especially since I didn't get home til at least 6 ( and this was both me and my husband doing dinner).

    Thanks for asking!
