The kids that did make it to the clinic had great sessions, I had several interesting and educated conversations with other SLPs about topics that I am really excited about learning about- pediatric feeding, apraxia of speech, etc... my supervisor is great and is really trying to work with me to help me get in as many eval hours as possible during the remaining half of the semester AND I got the chance to talk to some of the CFs at the clinic about the awesome CF program they offer there- they all seem to enjoy it a lot and are getting to work with really diverse caseloads and learn a ton. The SLP supervisor at the facility works really closely with them and seems to be an awesome resource for all of us to have around.... NOT that I am interested in investigating a job at this particular clinic (for various other reasons) BUT it is really nice to know that I might be getting my foot into a door that could lead to some awesome opportunities in the future IF I change my mind. Plus its always nice to have options...
It's days like today where I realize that I can do this job. I have worked so hard for the past 6 years and it feels really good to see the benefits of hard work. I'm going to love the career I chose for myself and I'm beginning to believe I can really be good at it.
PLUS when I got home the first thing I saw were the lovely red tulips Tory got me for Valentine's Day and then I ran 3 mi in 26.5 minutes. I am feeling rather victorious about conquering this wet, cold, and blustery winter day.
