Leave of Absence

Yes, after complaining and discussing my situation at work for a while with friends and family, I will officially be on a leave of adsence on Nov. 6. There is so much BS going on at that place right now and some people that I just cannot work with everyday. I realize that must sound really childish because I know you just can't quit a job just because you don't get along with the people you work with. My answer to that is two fold: 1.This is not a career for me, it is just a way for me to make money while I go to school. 2.My body physically and my relationships with friends and with others were getting neglected. I consider myself to be a cheerful person overall, but when I do not have a good day all week because I am dreading ONE day of work!! That is not good! Also, this job is causing my grades to drop! Yikes! I have been so tired and stressed out from work that by the time I get home, I have to energy for homework and studying! Anyway, there are some reasons why I have decided to take a break. I was planning on quitting, but my boss suggested instead to take a leave of absence until February. If I want to come back, I just call her and tell her when I can work. If I do not want to go back to work there, then she will submit my paperwork so that I will no longer be employed there. For me, at the moment, it is a win-win situation!!
Here is the good part for everyone else...I get to spend as much time at home or wherever as I want!! Now Ryan won't be able to make a weekend trip home without me! :) Honestly, I think my jealousy of him just driving home to see everyone set off my homesickness and now has triggered the deep thoughts about work.

I am getting back to homework now....even thinking of not working is mtivating me to do my homeowrk!!
