Today has not been the best day. I'm trying to destress with a little art therapy and a little extra therapy that comes in a wine glass.
One of my two part-time jobs has gradually become a lot more stressful than I expected and I'm not sure where/how I'm going to continue to fit it in my life.
On the surface, working for the local school district seemed like an ideal situation for a mother of school age children looking for some supplemental income. What I didn't understand is that, even though I have received no formal training, I would sometimes be responsible for students who have very deep emotional and/or mental health issues, students who maybe need more services than a school district should be required to provide.
Fortunately, I have options and I will now have to be more choosy with the assignments I accept so that I can have the kind of day that still allows me to be the kind of mom and wife I want to be when I come home from work.
Tomorrow will be a new day.
