shit almost hit the fan
Last week was a very trying week. I realized that I can't do everything, that I need to set boundaries and that my life needs to consists of a variety of people and activities. I was definitely pushed to my limits on the work front. Partly because I was being a team player, but mostly because other people took advantage of my team player mentality. As a result, I had a mini breakdown (at home over lunch) and spent most of the week keeping my thoughts to myself for fear I might say something I'd regret.
I learned that I can't only have friends I work with because those ones piss me off lately. :)
In all seriousness, I think that I'll have to have a chat with the person this week about how things are going because I know the stressful times are not over yet. I also have to put my foot down so that I can get my own list of priorities completed.
The long weekend was nice. I didn't think about work at all. It wasn't until I got closer to town that my stress started to come back. I'm thankful for a short week and hopefully things can be resolved.
On the personal front, I've signed up for some classes - another HR course and a cooking class! I am putting myself out there; bettering myself and looking to meet new people. No use complaining if I'm not going to do anything about it.
