My head is spinning!!

I am smack in the middle of site visit and can barely look ahead.  I can honestly say that I have always been blessed with jobs that are not too requiring of my time in the "after hours," but this job is surely not the case (I know, since I have had soooo many jobs:)).  I have put in many, many hours at our agency to ensure that our charts, paperwork, trainings, etc are all up to par.  I am exhausted, hungry, grouchy, emotional and can barely see the light at the end of the tunnel.  I even question myself, "am I cut out for this?"  But then I stop and think of all of the consumers that we have helped and those who's life has been changed for the better, because my agency exists.  I know we are by no means perfect, but knowing that it allows us to have a program, a bed or a staff to look up to tomorrow.... it makes it all worth it.


ps-- to anyone who has called, emailed, texted, facebooked, etc in the past 7 days... forgive me.  I have barely even acknowledged my own existence, much less anyone elses.  I promise I will re-surface when this is all over!!
