CPS stands for certified peer specialist, and what the training equips you to do is help someone in their recovery on a more personal basis by helping them set their goals and create personal accountability for their recovery process.
It just annoys me that I turned down teaching this year because I feel that I should do more for PoN and the ministry, but I still wanted to be able to sub now and again because i'm going to miss teaching...and then this comes up - during the same time period. *sigh* The training isn't offered but once or twice a year if that, so I have to choose the training. I'm really looking forward to it, though.
Now THAT is frustrating. At least you get your CPS though, and then it will be done with. It will all work out in the end, just with a few bumps. Offer it up and be patient, I guess.
And here's a weird question. You wouldn't happen to be on OD, would you? I JUST signed in immediately after reading this (days old) post and the most recent entry appearing on the front page had the line "I would have dyed my hair normal in an instant". I was like...woaaah. I clicked through a few entries to say hi, but no notes are allowed.
hehe. I use that for something else, actually - I signed up for PayPerPost.com [and I haven't received money yet, but I'm planning on making a post on it next week if I do get paid!! that'd be nice].
I just made up the OD journal just for that [about a month ago, but I copy/pasted a lot of my journal into it so it looks older], but I have to put filler posts of my own in between each paid entry, so I use what i write in my journal here and just cut it up in to pieces to space it out so I can get more paid posts in. :-P
So yes, I have one, but no, I don't actually use it. :-)
Wow. I saw rant under a cut and I really got scared. Turns out you were just having an argument with yourself. I did however bring you a rant button for your real rants!

Nothing to do with rants, or even the rant switch that justpapabear has kindly provided, but LJ tells me that today is your birthday. Of course, LJ has been known to get that wrong. But if it is your birthday today, then happy birthday to you!
