balance

Last week at work was very challenging. There were a lot of runaways to chase down, fights to break-up, restraints to perform, escorts to complete, etc.

There was a tension in the air so palatable you couldn't deny its existence.

But this week, peace, or the closest thing to peace when working in a group-home for the emotionally disturbed, seems to be restored.

Thursday, in particular, was an excellent day. I worked a double shift. We went hiking at Mission Gorge (pictures a couple posts down) then went on a shopping run. The day was nearly incident free!

Alas, there truly is a season for everything.
And thank God that, when all is said and done, it pretty much balances out in the end!
