In many ways I think I am changing. My last years has been less stressful, almost relaxing in a way the previous years hasn`t been. And most of it is conneted to work. Dont get me wrong, I am still finding myjob challenging and tiring, but I am now getting tired about being what I should be tired about, in other words I feel less like a social worker and more like a teacher.
This is now spilling over into my private life. I still work long hours, and drag myself off to work at o`seven early, but I now have more energy to contemplate doing anything else then sleeping when I get home. I also think its related to my first regular vitamin pills Im taking.
So I have made a decision. Im going back to school, for a short course, in natural science, space geography. Its a short course, Ive applied for it and hope to get it, and It should get me some more studypoints. If I get enough of them I will be bumped up the payscale a few grades as well. I will try to do it besides working for a full year and see how it goes. It is kind of a testperiod you might say. It will decide what I am going to do next year. If my plans hold.
But Im also changing as a person. I feel more calm and relaxed, less stressed, more positive, and viewing my surroundings ith new eyes, being more assertive, more reflecting and seeing more, being more social in some ways like my first year at where I work now. I also think the combination of people working where I am now is important. We`ve ended up as a fairly social bunch, and Im partaking of it more because I have more energy.
In many ways life is good, or getting better then it used to.
