HAPPY NEW YEAR! 2013!  I dont know about you, but Im ready to start a new year! This past year came with many lessons--some good, some difficult.  This year taught me about the unspoken politics and gossip that can tear through campuses. I connected with many amazing families and gained a new understanding of their triumphs and trials I was quickly reminded what i say doesnt always matter....even if I consult on a case, leave detailed notes on what is or is not appropriate to request for testing, and even emphasize best practices through training. Unless I'm at the meeting--it's not up to me. I've learned to let go of the things that aren't done by the book (or are legally defensible) when they are ultimately not my responsibility. On a personal note, I was able to FINALLY understand and acknowledge that when I'm upset in a meeting (related or unrelated to what's actually being discussed)...it's obvious. What universe have I been living in before...
