Wowsa's all I gotta say....

So for many of you that know I started my job as a Developmental Therapy Tech. I work with adults that have mental and physical handicaps. Thursday the 6th was literally my first day and I went in there and met with Sky my supervisor. I then filled out tons of paperwork and they let me know what I will be doing. For the first few days I will be meeting at the center here in Idaho Falls at Riverside Service Group. Then next week on Tuesday I will be going to meet with a guy one of the clients from River Side and he is just moving into his own apartment and I will be meeting with him and helping him with stuff that he will need to do to get settled into life at his apartment in doing day to day things. He has down syndrome and so I will help him and have to make sure that he does stuff like we do every single day. Make sure that he does a list of things, taken a shower, brushed teeth, deodorant, breakfast. Then when he has to go shopping he will have to find his own ride over to the center or if I know that he has shopping to do I will get the car from the center. Because I can't drive any of the clients in my own car. Then I will take him shopping to get things he needs from lists we will make together. And eventually what will happen down the road is that then he won't have to come to the center. Eventually one day he'll be able to do this on his own and one day get a job and stuff. I will still be working in Rexburg at Adams Elementary cleaning there. I am so blessed and so happy that I have the jobs I have. I hope I can find a full time job but for now I will work hard at these jobs.
Then some days when I don't have to meet up with him, I will be helping there at the center. Can I just say that I really liked going there. A lot of the workers have been so sweet to me, and they have had a lot of patience with me when I have made a few mistakes. There are clients that come in that have either a physical disability or a mental disability and some have both of them. There is one lady that doesn't talk and she is mentally and physically disabled but they try to teach her how to do somethings like to drink the water by herself and to eat from the spoon by herself. So seeing a lot of people that just have no real consistency of life kinda makes me sad, but I am glad that I will be there to help with them.
My first day I was able to help teach a few people in different groups. And there are four clients that come in and they are deaf. So I have already learned quite a bit of sign language. And I will learn a ton more during times when I will help out with those that are deaf. And they say that what I need to do is just pay attention so I have been paying attention. I can't wait to learn even more sign language.
My second day there. The first lady that I worked with was gone and so basically I just went with another girl that was working one on one with a client in the school. And so she just came back from working with this other kid. So I worked with her, and then to get paid we have to fill out tons and tons of paperwork and if there is even one single mistake we have to redo the whole paper. Holy snozberrie. This can get very complicated and I don't completely understand the paperwork too much. But I was with this girl the second day and she and I filled out all the books. Then She goes oh crap! Oh crap! And I was like oh no what? And she was like we have to redo every single book that we just did. Because we marked everyone's papers as that we had done all the people singly. And we were supposed to have marked that we did every person in groups. But she had to go to her clients house right then. So basically she says I am sorry can you redo all the books? And I say yes I will redo all the books. It took me an hour to redo everything. But hey it was a learning lesson that I have to pay attention to exactly what I am doing. I hope that I will continue to like this job and I am sure I will. I really like going there. I will still be working at the school district in Rexburg and I will be going back and forth for now. But maybe I might have to find another part time job in I.F. Because the roads are going to be getting snowy. But for now I am going to work both that I have. I am so glad that I have the jobs I do. I am so blest. Thanks Heavenly Father and Jesus for helping me.
