Another Giants Victory! Superbowl 2012

Not this past week that just ended, but the week before last....

Two steps forward, one step back

Just heard from my mom who had a routine check-up for her breast cancer yesterday. After all the progress she has made and everything she has overcome, they noticed it now grew a half centimeter after decreasing in size for the past year and a half. Her doctor also felt a nodule in her neck but mentioned that simply could be nothing as it doesn't move and is very hard, could be just a muscle with a knot in it or something but obviously they are still going to check it out. They are also going to give her a PET scan now and perhaps change around her hormone therapy meds.  I was so happy with all the progress she has made (because after she was first diagnosed, I spent many days in tears). Now I am slightly anxious with this bit of news but I know my mom is a fighter and throughout this whole process, she never lost her sense of humor and strength. I just hope if I ever have to battle the same fight she has, that I can have half the strength and willpower she has kept throughout this whole thing.

Up to my eyes in papers, degrees, transcripts, etc...

Started my work portfolio this past week. I used my internship supervisor's portfolio as a template to know exactly what should be put in there. Well it's been a blast looking through old coursework, papers, degrees, transcripts, client works of art and compiling it all together into a nice white binder called my portfolio. This is going to be something I bring along with me to interviews when I eventually interview for school counseling jobs.  I've put my resume, HVCC and WCSU degrees (I can't find my Daemen degree so I am sending a request for it to get sent to me), my transcripts, old coursework, letters of recommendation (even letters I received from high school teachers lol), IICAPS stuff, some of my favorite activities I've done with clients including my favorite piece of art work from a client. I went through so much old stuff today and stumbled across my old old elementary school year book from 1995!!!! Talk about old school! That's brought me way back and makes me feel so old haha I have never prepared this much for a job before in my life but it all makes sense considering the next jobs I will be applying for and hopefully interviewing for are my final career choice. I've already applied to three different school counseling jobs down in the Westchester area so as it gets closer to the end of the school year, I hope I will hear from them! Again wish me luck!

Little steps...

I haven't been dedicated to going to the gym lately so I have dedicated my work outs to DVDs, whether it's Insanity or Jillian Michaels' 30 day Shred which I actually feel more of a workout with those than the gym anyways lol  I have already done Insanity in the past so I decided to dust off my 30 day Shred and give it a shot... Only been doing it for 3 weeks so far only 3 times a week and I have lost an inch around my waist already! Yeahhh... it's a little early to be too excited but whatever I'm posting :-)
