So, I started work on July 30 and haven't had much time to post. Between work and commuting I have had very little free time during the week; I can't even stay up late and watch the Olympics :(. The first month is completely filled with training so most of my days are spent listening to lectures, but there have been a few days that I felt were really educational. Today was great because instead of going to the office we went to a Halfway home in the Bronx and spent the day working with the kids that lived there. I had a little girl named Ciane, who was originially paired with another guy but she refused to talk and was extremely shy so I let him take my teenage boy that seemed upset that he was put with a girl. Ciane ended up talking her head off by the end of the day and we had a lot of fun together. The past couple of weekends we've had Matt's friends from high school come and visit and then last week Jay and Nina came up. Although I love having guests, this weekend is our first free weekend since we moved in and I could use the rest. I'll try to keep the blog updated as much as possible, but until I get into a routine I am just too sleepy when I get home to log on and post.
