I am feeling a bit better today. First of all, I love my chiropractor. She helped me with the pain in my legs - shinsplints from standing on the hard tile floors of my house. I shouldn't complain, really. I live in a house with gorgeous, heated tile floors. I live with two lovely men who are both my age and awesome cooks. The villagers we share our home with are definitely intense at times, but they are much more easy-going than some others whom I have known.
R and I went out for breakfast this morning with a fellow co-worker and talked a little about the things that have been bothering me. She was very supportive. She told me that there have been village houseparents in the past who chose to focus on their home lives rather than going to all of the community meetings every week. Maybe I just need to pull back a little bit and focus on making my home right now. I think that the need for good co-workers is so great right now that I could probably set my own terms. Wish me luck.
