Just wanted to share the lovely thoughtful gift that a friend gave me for my 30th birthday yesterday ❤

I love both giving and receiving gifts! My favourite are gifts that show the gift-giver was putting thought and care into the gift. My friend spent time finding this clover, pressing it, and putting it into a nice card for me. To me, that's worth more than any expensive gift! 🍀

The allied professionals series is coming to an end! This Friday, I'll be providing a brief concluding episode that will give some details on what to expect next from Social Work Social!

I absolutely cannot stand to feel sand on my feet! Whenever I hear people say they love "to feel sand between their toes" I internally cringe because of how much I dislike the feeling myself.

My self care often involves going near water so I love spending time at the beach which seems counter intuitive given my aversion to sand. I used to avoid going to the beach because I was embarrassed about how I would react when I would be faced with having to touch the sand. Well, as you can see in this picture, I found my solution! When I go to the beach, I wear shoes and long pants. Is this typical beachwear? No. Do I get strange looks sometimes? Yes. Do I care? Not at all!

Do what feels right for you even if it looks weird to others!

This week's guest will be Tania! She is an Administrative Booking Clerk for the COVID-19 Vaccine Unit. Tania will be telling us about the experience of working in this position and the unique challenges she has been facing.
