Here I am

This is an accidental 4-second movie. In spring/summer I will probably have a knee replacement, but until then I am inside a lot finding things to do.

I found this trusty old owl puppet in the back of my closet. It was given to me by my clinical supervisor when I was finished with my internship at a children's mental health clinic in California. I had decided not to continue with children's mental health and she was trying to talk me into applying for a permanent position. If the job was specifically to work with autism spectrum kids, I would have done so.

This fluffy owl served a good purpose years later when my granddaughter would spend the night with me. Snowy was her sleep buddy and sometimes read a bedtime story to her.

I should share my accidental video clips as well! =,D

My Panasonic Lumix suffers from type fault of starting video by accident when zooming camera. It is often very annoying... =/

What comes to work you were once doing, I very much respect that.

And I hope your knee replacement goes alright. My mother in law is in the same situation, and I was surprised to hear that one should first make sure the dental health is taken care of before the operation. So, it can be a long process sometimes.

Yes, please share them! I am glad the sound recorder wasn't on, because I said a bad word!

As for my work, I do miss the people sometimes. My co-workers were great and the clients were fascinating, funny and sometimes scary - all at once! ;-)

Two of my brothers have had knee replacements and they recovered very fast. Pain was minimal and they were walking right away. Hmm, dental health...I know it is very important to keep the mouth in good condition, because infection can spread to the brain and heart. That is all I know about it. But, I am waiting to pay my share of another surgery I had in January before I do any other surgeries. My national insurance pays most, but I still have a co-payment.

Yes, the dental health was mentioned because of the infection risk. Glad to hear you have such national insurance to cover most of the costs. Here in Finland we have somewhat different system for that:

EDIT: Oh, and yes, those bad words I would also have to get removed first, on my accidental videos ;-)
