My first real OT job was at PTN and somehow I can’t seem to shake them. It’s been almost 2 years since I officially left and they seem to keep reeling me back in. Just last month I did some moonlighting and accrued about 12 hours doing two assessments for my boss. I’m also running Camp again for the 4th summer in a row, which will bring in August income. Since I’m off this week, I thought I’d log some hours in Torrance and carpooled with my old Irvine carpool friend just like old times. It’s so nice to go back once in a while. Since I started Irvine, I’ve been lacking the constant mentorship and support that I was so accustomed to. Whenever I go back I get refueled and bombarded with a new outlook on my at-the-moment crummy job. I guess it’s good to know that I’ll always have a job to fall back on if I decide that IUSD is not for me.

On a side note…I still got home in time to get in a 3-miler with the dog. I feel like I’m getting my legs back and the dog is doing rather well himself. I also convinced the brother to sign up for the 5K that Jes and I are running in May. Hopefully training for it will be a good distraction and outlet for him. We may try some surfing lessons together too…maybe.
