I just barely completed my work today. First full day back. I'm already feeling overwhelmed. One of the reasons I took a sudden LOA was because of the difficult caseload I have. I find myself just getting plain annoyed at my patients and co-workers. I feel a bit guilty because everyone is so thrilled to have me back and I'm not able to reflect that back. I feel artificial and plastic.
I put a few feelers out for alternate employment. My college application is currently being reviewed. I'll know soon what credits are accepted and the course of action to complete my degree.
I feel like I need to tough it out at work. It's really a great job, good pay, great benefits, and decent hours. Yet, I'm restless and desire to go dig ditches somewhere. Sling some mud or something.
Arrrggghhh.......
