I have just watched @DanWaldronOT's lecture for #327OT around responding to the COVID-19 from a school based OT's perspective in preparation for today's seminar. It showed me even why I want to be a SBOT when qualified. It is getting closer! #sbot #ot #keepbuilding

I was planning on staying at home today to work but the noise was too much with a bad headache. So back to my sisters with the hope of being more productive with less distractions and noise. However, Jasper has other ideas. #playtime #labrador #student #ot #thingstodo
