I’ve just made tea. A fairly tidy Caesar Salad with Anchovies. Delicious. Unfortunately there’s no picture, because it’s all gone. I’ll update it next time. In the meantime here’s the best I could …| What's the PONT
When does a Desire Path become a path of necessity? Not just something you choose for convenience. This is a thinly disguised attempt to share the fact that I’ve been walking along a bit of the Camino de Santiago. I’ve been told I’ve become the opposite of one of the characters in the film Fight […]| What's the PONT
Here a few things that appear along the Camino that made me pause. Nothing particularly deep and meaningful here. Mostly just weird stuff that appeals to my sense of curiosity. Be Quiet! Listen. A small chalk board fixed about 3m up in a tree. Somewhere in the Beechwood’s around Fontaine de Roland (I think). It […]| What's the PONT

A picture really does speak a thousand words. It is an incredibly welcoming sight. What? No longer walking because we have to. Hurrahhh It […]| What's the PONT

Some of the chatter talks about it being an […]| What's the PONT

When I was a student, my supervisor would start telling me about how she managed her caseload. ‘Well, I often eat lunch in the car, before I enter the home of another service user. I make sure I get sandwiches so I can sweep the […] The post How to manage caseloads in social work appeared first on Save The Social Worker.| Save The Social Worker
If you’re a supervisor, you’ve probably faced this. Walk into supervision, and the supervisee looks at you, expectantly, awaiting you to start the ball rolling. You think to yourself: I thought you were supposed to take charge of your own supervision! Or you might be a supervisee (the one being supervised). You walk into the supervision, […] The post 9 Social work topics for supervision appeared first on Save The Social Worker.| Save The Social Worker

I am a huge proponent of To-Do Lists. I get stressed if there’s not a list of things for me to do, even if it’s all just possibilities. If it’s not written down on a list, I totally forget about it…| retirementtransition
