Cerella, how are you doing? I'm sorry about the crazy work hours, but aside from that, it is going well? It sounds like you know what you're doing in the job, which is great. :)
 
I miss you, come back and forget that job-LOL Wow your really working your butt off I am proud of you!Great job eating good! With hours like those I guess it helps to keep you on track!Make sure you get some sleep and be safe:hug2:
 
Miss ya, beautiful. As for trying to get exercise in there, I'm sure you're doing a WHOLE lot of exercise at work, so I wouldn't frett it whatsoever. Wishing you and the girls a great weekend.

Hi Cerella,

I used to work in a group home and all of this just brought up horrible nightmares I went through while working there. It eventually wore me down and I didn't take shifts anymore. I worked with a lot of immigrants who couldn't get other jobs and did not care about the residents or giving them a proper life in there home. Rarely followed the rules, for meals, meds, outings, one on one time. It was normal on Saturday's to have a 14 hour shift. 9am -11pm after working till 11pm Friday night!!! That was part of my actual schedule. It was completely insane! It totally wore me down mentally and physically.

I really hope it doesn't do the same to you.

I hope everything is going well for you. :hug2:
 
:doh: Wow girl when will you ever get a break,you are SUPER busy I would hate shifts like that!I would do a 3 day 12 hour shift tho then be off 4 days :D
Hope you survive the weekend and usually your feeling are right about a person.Tammy

It sounds like you are getting heaps of movement to burn up your calories and keep you toned. This is looking good as far as weight loss goes!!

You do sound crazy busy though. I hope you are getting some kind of time that's emotionally helpful the way the elliptical was, and that you're feeling good about the way things are heading for you. :)
 
Hey Cerella, thanks for your nice comments about my teaching. I'm sorry I've been so scarce lately. Between the cold and school starting I've had a definite lack of time and energy for posting. I'm going to try and change that this week.
 
Hey girl, I know things haven't been going the way you hoped for. I hope i help you a little bit if any at all when we talk on the messenger. I really wish we lived closer together then things wouldn't be so hard cause i could watch the girls for you when you worked plus we would have workout team... we wouldn't have to find a way to motivate ourselves to working out. today i didn't get my planned workout in as alex refused to nap and then didn't go to bed until 11pm so now its time to wind down and go to bed as i have to get up earlier then normal so i can get us breakfast made before our 11am appt. see you when you get home from work if your not to tired.
talk to you soon.
 
Been thinking about you.
I'm sure you're really really busy and I hope things are going good.
I miss you on here.
 
Thanx Heather :) Ya you do help I just feel whinny - lol - Leaning on ppl and tlaking abt things is hard for me...especially when we get personal and it is abt my feeling and my life and how I am honestly feeling deep down ya know...I chalk it all upto being tired and not really lonely but just needing and wanting more for me.

Selena girl - thank you - Im missing you as wella nd I think of you often - my mind frame just hasnt been here...Ive been gpoing through the after maths of stress and post trauma from changing jobs - lol...it is hard to start form the bottom again and work myself up - my decision was good and right and althought im making decent money and such this job is allowing me more downtime and home time but it is kinda working in the reverse way that I wanted it too.

I find with actually having the time and space to breathe in my life it is making me a bit lazier and less ambitious...lol...plus the kids are getting sucker and whinnier and harder to deal with - I guess reeally there is just never a happy medium...Im also beat when I do work cuz my shifts are 10 hrs and I was throwen into alot that was appearantly not typical for a beginnier and so on and so on - lol

I passed my clearance/training for g-tube feeding and meds for this one wmn in the house - Im getting there and doing it...stressed over nothing...ha ha ha...

I was personally asked by a house manager to come and work at her house as she heard how good of a job I am doing and how impressed my current house is with me and the job im doing...and that appearantly i would be a great asset for her to have in her house - this is great considering I ws totally questioning how good I was doing and that I come off the streets with no training or schooling!!!

Im just tired and whinning and wishing for more for me and myself ya know - Im gettin tired of always giving to the kids and them being my life - I want a life for me....

Anyway that is my vent...LOL

We are doing well - Taneesha is almost potty trained and Kaylea started high school and is loving it!!! They are trying to get her into grade 9 art they think she is that good and would just waste her grade 8th year on art and she wants to be an artist of some sort when she gets older...she reminds me so much of me in general - like I have so many ideas of things I would still like to try and do...ya know:)I burn many irons but that is my personality type!

Wow Cerella!! WTG on the GTube feedings...those things smell so great huh??? not!! lol

I understand about wanting a life!! believe me I do!! You get to a point where you really just have to start doing things for yourself...in the end, the kids get blessed too, b/c now they can see how much happier mom is! you know?

Going to school is a HUGE guilt trip for me too! but i have to remind myself that the kids will benefit in the end when i get bigger paychecks and i'm a happier person!

Keep up the good work hun and keep comming here! you know we miss ya when your gone!!
