The Latest

I'm a bad blogger. I know it. But I told you I would be until something new and exciting happened in my life.

Well, that time has come. This week I started a new job at the homeless day center I've been volunteering with throughout the school year. Back in December, their executive director told me about a new position they were looking to fill and asked me to apply. I am now their part-time director of development, the first person to ever take on this position in their organization. It's going to be a challenge, and an adventure.

This week has been a week in which I've tried to learn more about the organization's vision and mission, which largely means I've been reading and talking with staff and volunteers. But Tuesday morning I arrived to see quite an unusual sight - there was a sheep in my office. A real one. It's mother had abandoned it shortly after its birth, so its owner (my co-worker) has to bottle feed it for the next couple of weeks. She uses a beer bottle with a nipple attached to it. And the sheep wears a diaper. Seriously.
