help me, help me now

Maybe I’m not cut out to work in social services. Working through people’s problems at work is one thing but when it creeps on into my “life”, I just can’t handle it. I’m overwhelmed. I just want to chill sometimes, but its like I’m on the clock non-stop.

Anxious. Exhausted. Annoyed.

I wish I could be more patient with the people that I love. I’ll try. Because I guess this is how it’s gonna be. Are you in, Vanessa?

Yes!

half full

Didn’t have the best of days but I’m trying to search out some optimism.

At one point today, I looked in the mirror without my glasses on and thought I saw a bald spot. I quickly put them back on, and no. It wasn’t a bald spot. Just bad vision. Horribly bad vision.

So, I have thick, full, volumous hair. And that’s something to be grateful for, even if it’s superficial, isn’t it?
