celebrations and goodbyes

I finished my last day of work at the preschool today and it was so bittersweet. Since our clinic was up and running, we christened it with a full day of treatments and meetings. We had lots of visitors stopping by to check out the new clinic and they were all very excited for us but also sad to see me go. I even had two teachers in tears when they came by to say goodbye. That was very touching.  I also got a bunch of hugs and goodbyes from my kiddos.  It’s so great to see how they’ve grown these past years.

Today was also the last day for our interns.  My intern worked so hard these past three months and I’m so proud of how far she’s come in her clinical skills.  I still find it kinda funny that I’m actually imparting knowledge to another person now. Geez, I’m getting old.

To celebrate both of their accomplishments, we went out for lunch and exchanged gifts.   Later in the evening, I met up with my colleagues at the local wine bar and they gave me a $75 Target gift card.  How thoughtful!  Well, we had a great school year and I will really miss our monthly lunches and meetings.

So, I am done for now. Jes flies down early tomorrow morning and we’ll be driving up to SF on Sunday. I’m just crossing my fingers for a closing date next week. Let’s hope it all falls into place soon.
