Some of us are studying and others are job hunting :-)
Both Dave and Ben are job hunting. Dave has linked with a charity that helps folk with disabilities find employment and Ben is looking for an apprenticeship role in the construction industry. Hopefully both of them will be successful in their efforts.
I am currently ploughing my way through a second round of doula training with a charity that supports women and families who are vulnerable. The course will lead to a qualification in level three perinatal care and comprises nine modules with assessments and assignments at the end of each one. Computer access is a rarity these days so I've currently written three of my assignments and have a heap of work to type up and submit! I've earmarked tomorrow afternoon when Pip's online lessons have finished ;-)
Pip is in her second week of InterHigh and is really pleased that she has her English teacher from last year! Mr Klappholz is a fab teacher - enthusiastic, encouraging and his lessons are always engaging. She is slowly settling in to the new rhythm but the early starts are quite challenging thanks to a combination of the PoTS and the JHS - I don't think a day goes by where she isn't battling fatigue or pain but thankfully at the moment it is manageable.
Pip's latest creative media brief is to design a front cover of her autobiography so she decided to take photographs of some of her favourite things and then using a design programme altered them to make them appear like drawings - she's going to format them into a collage using Picmonkey with some of her art work interspersed in between.
