Today didn't have the greatest start. I had an 8am meeting with some parents who are concerned about the vocational future of their adult child with a disability. Such meetings don't happen that often, and are part of what I do. This particular one wasn't really that bad, except for the absurdly early timing. The parents are in a bit of denial about their daughter's abilities, but they were polite and understanding as I outlined options and what my agency would and would not do. They even agreed the current job is a "good fit", as far as it goes.
Mom: [Name of Assisted Living Facility] is not a bad match for "Linda". She likes working with old people.
"Linda": I like new people, too!Bless her heart.

Bless her heart indeed. Teresa will sometimes sing that song, "make new friends and keep the old..."

New people can be cool, even when they're old new people.
