Today I had an appointment with a coordinator at Activite, the care organisation here in Leiderdorp. Kerstin, my casemanager at Social Services, told me to look for volunteerwork if I can't find a 'real' job and so I sent some emails to places like the hospital, a hospice and Activite.
The people at the hospice are very lucky, they have a waiting list for volunteers at the moment. I will give them a call to ask how long that waiting list is, I have approximately a year and a half before I leave for the States so if the list is long...
The hospital....well they didn't even answer me. I guess that means they have enough volunteers :p Personally I would have answered someone that wants to volunteer but hey, I am not working there... I do think that in this way they don't really promote volunteering.
The coordinator at Activite had another place for me where I can ask if they need volunteers and Kerstin gave me a site too that I can look into so all and all I hope I won't have to sit at home here and be bored to death :')
Last week I picked up my new glasses. Apparently that change at my right eye made quite a difference, I can't watch tv anymore with my 'computer glasses'. But they both look good and I am very happy with them :D
This weekend I had a visitor at home, first time since the divorce really! Well, that is not counting my kids of course... My sister Andrea came for a sleepover. I went to pick her up at the station Saturday and we had loads of fun, with Dan too. She likes the food I like and she was really happy with the sauerkraut and pineapple ovendish I made. Sunday evening I took her to the busstop, it was really cold, so we both were like: nah, no scooter ;)
Andrea and I went through my wardrobes too, I still have way too many clothes! Well I got to throw away a few and Andrea took a few home but most of my clothes are basic classics, I just need a representative job to show them off ;)
And there we are again, back to me 'whining' about work :p I think I should stop writing for today!!
Have a nice day y'all!!!
