I have had “must volunteer at Ubuntu House” sitting on my sh*t do to list for years. Not figuratively years, but literal years. I think since 2010 if I recall correctly.
I keep printing out the forms, looking for my best inky pen, filling them in.
Then promptly losing them on my desk, and getting side tracked with life.
I phone Ubuntu House again, they send the forms, again, and I would promptly repeat the process.
But not this year. This year, this month I have my stuff together.
Saturday I am attending their “Volunteer Course” which I assume will include information about which side of the baby to keep upright. How to clean poo bums. How to cuddle a baby that is struggling with human interaction, and hopefully how not to get too attached so you do not try to sneak a baby out of the center all snuggled up against you.
I think they have a rule about that.
Excited. Lots.
Apprehensive. A bit.
