For those who don't know I work in a group home supporting women with disabilities. For the most part my ladies are gems on occasion they are not. Yesterday I get to work, Im doing an afternoon shift and I am pretty tired but ready for an eventful evening as it was planned for most of the ladies to go to Jailhouse Rocks ( an Elvis tribute with the star Elvis Frisky) I was a lucky one and did not have to attend this concert ( yippee I screamed to myself as I am not an Elvis fan) but I had made arrangements for the one lady who wasnt going to come to my place since she has been asking and asking since I moved in a few months ago. So everything was a go. All we had to do was eat dinner and head on out.
If only if only. Well my lamb of a lady( not the one coming with me) who has yet to strike out at me in anger she usually does so on her roommates, had a moment of pure madness last night. And lunged at me. And sent me flinging backwards into the wall. I was sitting on the computer chair with wheels but still the force that came from this tiny lady. Who new! I tell you I love my job, its very rewarding and rairly do you as a staff have an unusual occurrence but me cause I am the regular afternoon staff and am there pretty much every day tend to get the blunt of peoples frustrations only because they love me and I am the one they trust. Messed up I know. But now today I am sore. I believe I may have whipblash from it. Ugg such a pain in the butt I tell you.
But whatever. Today is a new day and all will be forgotten and forgiven till the next outburst.

Ouch! Every job has it's "down" side? Hopefully it won't happen again.
Part of the job hey? Wait till someone grabs your butt or boobs. That's good times. But I guess that's not such a risk working with women...butcha never know!
you would be surprised. women tend to have no boundrys when it comes to expressing their freedom to wear clothes or get a bit touchy. I used to work with men and a there is a whole safe chest zone on a naked man but on a women there aint alot of space specially on older ones that have droopy bubs.lol
