Pin pricks...

One pin prick at a time, I am wondering if coming back up here was worth while. Friends and family wise... despite some troubles with friends... it is WAY worth it in those respects... life is interesting. I bought a house and I am here to stay, but boy do I miss my old job!!!!!!!! I actually loved working with the mental health kids with severe problems, and awesome professional co-workers... Why is it that I can't have both worlds? Life is a trial, and we are to make it better and better, but I am starting to understand why criminal justice personel are more likely to become alcoholics. I get along with everyone for the most part, but you can't make everyone happy. At work, if I make a joke, one person will laugh, one gets paranoid about what I am saying in their own implied meanings, one scowls and is offended, one gets ticked off, one is bored with the whole conversation, and one is entertained. Okay, so that wasn't a real life situation, but it gets my point across. Dealing with so many personalities with co-workers and offenders at work... I have never ever dealt with anything like it. If it doesn't kill you, it makes you stronger, right? Like I said working with the mental health kids seems like a walk in the park now, although I must admit I usually enjoyed going to work at Red Wing, it was a great job, one of my favorite jobs thus far! I MISS RED WING!!!!!!! Well, I miss working there, not living there. Now, I run into so many problems... not one person... not one place... just small pin pricks here and there, but with so many it gets old after a while...
I apologize to my readers, this isn't my typical fun loving blog, but a little insight to the fact that I am human too, and have to deal with all the difficulties in life, hopefully I can learn from my difficulties.
