Adjustment

[fizzyland]

I'm having to adapt to not only working different hours, but an entirely different way of working. It didn't take 6 months to realize I needed out of the bakery and now here I am - working overnight, sitting at a desk, typing away.

Slinging baking pans at 6 am and working 9 hour days under very uncomfortable conditions. Compared to listening to

Fingers crossed you'll have a smooth go of things! :-)

Excellent! It's good to talk some things through and even get some feedback that could help. I'm hoping you figure out what will work for you in that gig, if it's one you'd like to move forward in. And it sounds like it is if you're getting certified for something (though I somehow missed what so I will be reading more.)

I seem to be missing stuff on FB - not just your posts, but many. I was just going through some tonight and I'm seeing 6-day old posts from some friends that I swear I never came across before tonight. LJ is still the place we mostly tell it like it is, even after all these years on FB and sharing some things there I never thought I would. I hear you differently here and I like that you're posting again. I'm gonna aim for once per week at least. I need to journal cos I'm stressy right now and I know it helps me to write it all out.

I'm over here hoping the best for you! You're a go-getter and should be proud of the steps you've been taking, even though they are difficult and stressful at times. You're moving forward.

So the certification I'm working towards is Home Care Aid. I'm a better fit for this than even I thought I would be at first. Right now the place I'm working is a group home with four residents. On overnights, I only interact with a couple of them. I get to make breakfast for one guy and he's become a big fan of my breakfast sandwiches.

I've come to realize that I feel very restricted on how I post on fb. Because people don't want to deal with anything serious and to me, that's very limiting. Plus like you mention, there's something sus about how fb displays posts to us. I keep seeing the same handful of posts and missing what most of my friends are putting up.
