I have been slowly starting a new, part-time job. It’s with a new adoption agency. One that I worked with a bit at my old agency. They are national and have only now opened a New York City office. They reached out to me and asked if I was interested in doing some part-time work (home studies and hospital outreach). I’m very interested in the home study work and a bit less about the outreach. Mostly because that was a big part of my old job that I really came to dislike and I know a lot already about the barriers of reaching out to many of the NYC hospitals. Anyhow, it’s a perfect opportunity for me right now because it will only entail about 10 hours/week (some of which will be from home) and then hopefully one home study per month. The agency is really wonderful so in that respect it’s a no brainer. I want to have my foot in the door and for my resume to not have too big a lapse in it. I know it’s now much but it’s still a big change for me and Theo. He will have a sitter one full day per week for now. We’ll see what happens with these pre-school applications, other tours I have arranged/day care wait lists, and how the job goes. Tomorrow I will be heading out to some hospitals and doing my first home visit with a prospective adoptive family. Excited about it. Ready for this change and hopefully Theo will be, too.
