After 6 cups of coffee, this is what you get!

Oooh boy! So uhh, yesterday was pretty much one of the worst days I've had since I started my job as an Assertive Outreach Worker. I guess it was only a matter of time before one of my clients had a psychotic episode with me, I just had hoped it would never happen. Needless to say, after being yelled at and accused of all sorts of horrible things, I had to have a little cry. This was at 8:30 in the morning. I then spent the rest of my day in meetings with my boss, trying to convince people to leave their homes, and dealing with EVERYONE else's case load ( I was the only worker on yesterday). By the time I got home from work, I was mentally and physically exhausted. Considering I'd had only 5 hours of sleep the night before, I didn't think there was anything wrong with having a hot bath and climbing into bed at 6pm.

I fell asleep almost immediately, and awoke only when Mr.Tanaka decided to claw at my head like it was a scratching post. I then got up, put the cats in their room, took 2 sleeping pills and rekindled my love of blogging by signing up for this here blog. *And for that I'm sure you're all grateful* After getting my blog on, I crawled back into bed and slept until my alarm went off at 6:15 this morning. Then I got up, did some Belly Dancing, got ready for work, and started this fantabulous day!!
Let me give you a little run down on my work day:
9am-Breakfast with my old guys
10am-Pick up a client for a meeting at the office
10:15-11am-Piss around the office drinking copious amounts of coffee and giggling with admin staff and therapists
11:15am-Drop client off at home
11:20am-12:35pm-Piss around at home until I pick up my next client
12:45-1:45pm-Listen to a client babble on and on about things I neither a) care about or b) understand
2-4pm-Play pool with clients!!

Yeah...so that's my work day. It beats yesterday by a long shot.

Tomorrow after work I will drive to Peace River and hang out with Nicole and Chris and probably drink some wine. Then we will sleep, and then we will snowboard in the afternoon. I may or may not break a limb.
