work...hmmmm

Ok, so as much as I thought I wouldn't have anything to blog about for a few days I was wrong. I'm going to talk a bit about my job and what it makes me think about.... I have actually enjoyed my new job. It makes me sore and tired by the end of the shift but I have liked working around the older people there and enjoy talking to them. BUT they also make me sad. most of them have very few visitors and some NEVER have visitors. Some of the aren't quite all there and probably don't even notice but then there are others who are sweet, alert, semi active(compared to the others) old people who just seem so lonely and no one comes to see them :-( It makes me feel even worse that I don't think we visited Todd's Grandpa nearly enough when he was in the care center. we tried to see him once a week but seriously is that enough? He also had other visitors but still . anyhow, We all must remember to take time for the old people in our lives! REMEMBER! (Tia, I am NOT talking about me either so SHUDDUP... well at least not yet!)

The old people are awesome even when they're crabby. There was one sad old lady today but that's a whole nother story....
