What a week! It started with the ELIJA’s Pathways to Adulthood Conference where I spoke on planning for a disabled child, then it was off to a wonderful networking event with Long Island Lawyhers, followed by presenting at Brandywine for a CEU event!! Finally, wrapped up the week volunteering for the American Foundation for Su***de Prevention!! Of course, client meetings and work work work in between but took the day and enjoyed watching the Mets win at CitiField yesterday with some of my law school friends! An annual tradition! Tomorrow is Saturday and I will be cheering on my youngest at her dance competition!
