My boss said that they are having "my" meeting on Monday and that I will be getting a letter in the mail about it.  Public school administration is kind of scary, and they may be giving me the heave hoe on Monday.  I hope I get there letter inviting me to my being fired before then.  Who knows what will be in the letter?  Just an invitation to a nice chat, or maybe it will be down and dirty going over the points for my termination.  God knows they have enough dirt on me to get rid of me.  For instance today one of the students was in a position on the therapy table, and she was looking like she was about to suffocate into the pillow that was holding her head.  So I went over and her mouth was bleeding.  I told the teacher and asked what I should do.  She said, go get the swab and clean out her mouth.  I went to get the swab, but I forgot to get gloves.  Talk about making a big mistake.  Handling any kind of bodily fluids, saliva, blood, urine...we are required to wear rubber gloves....but oh, no, here I go, Saint Caroline to swab out this little girl's mouth, with no gloves!!!!  I could have shot myself.  But, I just kept on, after realizing the mistake I had made, and telling the teacher (who probably had noticed already).  This whole nursing, caretaking thing scares me...I'm always forgetting some very basic thing, putting the breaks on the wheel chair so it doesn't move, wearing gloves...ect.  There is always something I'm forgetting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I did get a call back from Kelly Services and they have a position open working with a big insurance company as a customer service rep...it's a long drive, and only goes thru February, but it does have health insurance.  Also got info on a music therapy degree program.  I like music alot and am wondering if I could make a career of it.  Have borderline personality disorder allows me to be on a never ending quest for my true calling in life.  But maybe I do have a true calling.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18812737-113166551133753027?l=purplewildflowers.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://purplewildflowers.blogspot.com/feeds/113166551133753027/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=18812737&amp;postID=113166551133753027' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/18812737/posts/default/113166551133753027'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/18812737/posts/default/113166551133753027'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://purplewildflowers.blogspot.com/2005/11/did-anyone-say-you-are-getting-fired.html' title='Did anyone say you are getting fired on Monday?'/><author><name>Can u get there from here</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05984381173446879199</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18812737.post-113157403319330960</id><published>2005-11-09T13:59:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2005-11-09T14:09:56.750-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Introduction</title><content type='html'>I'm writing the first entry to my blog. I think it will be cool to write about myself and things that I think about. I wonder if anyone will read this? For today I'm staying home from work with a sore throat. I think I may be fired from my job either Thursday or Friday. Right now I work with children who have severe disabilities, they are all in wheel chairs and none of them are verbal. Most of the day we try to get them out of their wheel chairs, onto mats to stretch their muscles, then we prepare lunch, then it's back to different positions. Sometimes we do activities with them like sorting clothes pins, putting shapes into a container, and I have brought my guitar several times to play for them. I'm kind of burned out on the job, have some sciatica in my back which makes it hard to do all of the lifting a diaper changing. Plus it doesn't pay well. So my attitude has sucked, and they are in the process of getting rid of me. I've been looking for another job, customer service, working at hospital, a library but with no luck. On top of that I have all of these crazy diagnoses, like I have boderline personality disorder. I don't like authority either, so maybe I'm oppositional defiant too. Guess I need to ask my therapist about that. All in all, I just want to pick up and move somewhere else, anywhere, the mountains, where it's cool. I hate the heat in South Carolina. I only start functioning around this time of year when it gets cooler. That's all for now.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/18812737-113157403319330960?l=purplewildflowers.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://purplewildflowers.blogspot.com/feeds/113157403319330960/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=18812737&amp;postID=113157403319330960' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/18812737/posts/default/113157403319330960'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/18812737/posts/default/113157403319330960'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://purplewildflowers.blogspot.com/2005/11/introduction.html' title='Introduction'/><author><name>Can u get there from here</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05984381173446879199</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
