Wow, what a busy week.
At school, we're having the "big test." You know the one. The state standardized test that now controls every aspect of our career? It makes for some crazy days and some crazier students. I can't blame them because sitting for hours taking standardized tests is enough to drive anyone crazy. That doesn't make handling my squirrely freshmen in the last class of the day any easier though. Today is our last testing day. I will be so happy to get back into our normal routine.
On Tuesday night, we had a meeting with our new social worker. What a difference! We basically fired our old social worker. She was just terrible. We only had her do our homestudy update because anyone else would have had to start from scratch. There was no way I was going to have her do our post-placement reports. We'd like to submit those on time. Not next year on bad social worker time.
Our new social worker seems very thorough and very nice. She asked all the right questions. Her reputation is very good, so I am hopeful that we'll get our report in time. She knew our deadline and set the appointment time. It's a little close as we need to have our report to our agency by next Friday. She assured us it would not be a problem.
Can you believe it's already time for our six month post-placement report? Me neither. It seems like yesterday, but it also seems a lifetime ago.
Last night, we had our monthly mom's night out. I had to miss last month's, so I was really looking forward to it. It's especially important to me since I'm no longer going to playgroup. I was seeing some of these ladies weekly. It was so nice to get out have a margarita, some enchiladas, and just catch up. One of the mom's is waiting for TA, so we were all giving our advice on travel.
Sera is really enjoying her new doll. She likes to feed her and put her to bed. I'll get some pictures this week and post them. It's just too cute!
