This past week or so has been crazy, but in a good way. Dance is going wonderfully, and I have another lesson to go to tonight, Yay! We are moving on to the rumba...gotta love swaying those hips.
My volunteer shifts have been fairly regualr, though I had a very rough shift where in 9 hours I only spent about 1 not on the phone with a women in crisis. This entire month seems booked with meetings, fundraisers, newsletters, AGM's, deadlines etc, etc. In the midst of all this I am seriously thinking about commiting myself to yet another center, a womens shelter where I would be working with children and their parents in crisis...am I insane?
My family is taking a trip down to our old home town at the end of November for about a week or so. It should be interesting *shudder*. The good side is that I have an apointment at the police station there to start my report against that side of my family...my mum should be going with me which will make things easier. It means that when I get back I will try to take some time off the crisis lines (like that will actually happen, knowing me :blush
No matter how I look at it, I am sure a week in the country would be nice. It has been a long time since this small town gal' has been on a horse 
.
My boyfriend and I are slowly working things out, which feels amazing. We are living seperatly, but somehow it feels right to have a little bit of space. We had a great date yesterday full of french fries and movies, that I think reminded us both of what is really good in this relationship (not including anything physical
).
Other than that the only new stuff is applying for school...I am so nervous...that is all I really have to say about it, lol. That and there should be more feminist councilor programs out there .
