growing and stretching

What they forget to tell you is that being in charge can be lonely. And that when you answer questions most of the time, there are many truths. I just get to pick the one we are going to follow today. But it is also a fun challenge. I miss seeing and being with clients. Like, I want to kidnap them and take them to my office. I went to psychosocial group yesterday. It was sad because our program doesn't know about recovery yet. So, they sit around doing things that I was doing in pscyhosocial thirteen years ago. No more!!! Change gon come. Oh yes it is!

Work is hard right now. And fun. But mostly hard. Family is good though. Anna is being a basketball star, she really is pretty good. George and I are coaching her team, which is hilarious. I am still worried about K.J., as his motivation continues to wane. No job, no classes right now. I am worried. I don't want him to get depressed, or feel hopeless. He wants to get into theatre, but I think he is too shy to make it happen. He's going back to school when he gets his financial aide straightened out. I did not pay for his classes and for fear of him get the same grades he earned in high school because he did not do his homework. I would have gone crazy with that. So, I did the hard thing. I did nothing. I did not save the day. I watched him from the wings as he learned a hard life lesson. If you do not turn in your paperwork and double check things, you will not have what you need when you need it.

He has a car to drive in our driveway. He is still not interested in driving it. I just don't know. He is going to kill me for blogging about him. Shhh don't tell. I'm pretty sure he doesn't read my blog.
