What a fun time I had at my eighth Psychotherapy Networker Symposium! As anyone who knows me in my professional sphere can tell you, I am mildly obsessed with this annual conference. It's held every third week in March at the same hotel in Washington, DC. I have attended since grad school (2007) and only missed when absolutely necessary (ie, Willa). It's like summer camp for therapists, where like minded people who live all over the country get together once a year and pick up right where we left off, learning, dancing, singing, and laughing at the antics of the Editor in Chief. I love it! Everyone always gets a sticker to indicate how many years they have attended, so of course I had to get Cubbie a "1."
You can't see it, but I have an "8" on my volunteer red hat!
Being pregnant there was so fun! People let me go to the front of excruciatingly long bathroom lines, I got out of a couple of work assignments that would have had me on my feet all through lunch, and people were generally happy to see my bump walking around. Fellow attendees of the "Shake your Soul" dance event were all impressed that I was Dancing While Pregnant, and asked lots of questions about whether Cubbie liked the music and dancing or not. Made me feel very special! Even though my ankles swelled and my feet have spread a little, I am so glad I went and had an awesome time!
We enjoyed our time with Willa and Jeremy while you were away. Glad you had an enriching and fun time.
