Well, I need suggestions. I have just found out that my hours at the hospital are about to be cut . . . AGAIN! I love, love, love what I do and what I teach. I get a HUGE rush out of speaking in front of large groups. I love being able to take time with each group to get to know some of them a bit to be able to answer their individual questions about birth.
In a community where the population is in a steady rise, there are fewer people taking prenatal classes or wanting to. Some are vying for the few spaces in the free classes offered by the region. Most however, just do not.
What should I do now? I am having some thoughts (especially as I try to prepare to re-apply for school this winter) that perhaps I should do something small and local. Some of my other thoughts suggest I try to follow my desire to do more public speaking. I wouldn't even know where to begin to step into that role. I would love to write more. (Or start writing again.) I know writing wouldn't be a paying gig (as much as that would be lovely) but it may the catharsis I need.
The boys don't know how stressed I am about this. I am keeping it pretty mum at the moment as Fergus would really worry if he knew something was bothering me. I have hardly spoken to Doug about it because this is the car photographer's busy season. They are out until all hours every day shooting pictures of the new cars coming out.
I should tell you, because I think it is incredibly funny the idea of it all, that "they" (Toyota) will bring vehicles in on truck under the cover of night and drive them into the studio at Toyota. Bill, Doug et al. get a few days to take all of the pictures Toyota needs for their advertising and then they load the trucks back up with the vehicles and away they go.
If they have to take shots on location and the vehicle image has not been released to the public as yet, the trucks take them to the location site for shooting and then load them up again. Neat for Doug. He has had a chance to drive some really nice Toyota and Lexus products that aren't even on the market yet. Seems hilarious to me though (who could care less about the new vehicles coming out) that there is all of this secrecy.
Anyway, I guess that's my humour at the end of a more sobering message. Please send your career suggestions to me as soon as possible!!!!

Public speaking? Yes!
Your vibe, flow and presentation are so inviting...and, really, quite superior.
Writing? Well, you know how I feel about that. Perhaps a collection of 'a year in the life of...'?
Let's start with a remake of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPmaG0oGS_8.
Quelle hoot!
