[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 401805, member: 1233"] Consider talking to a temp agency. Temp jobs can be a lot of fun. I was a temp when we lived in OH after I quit the bookstore. It let me take days off when I needed to and bring in a bit of income too. I worked in some really interesting places and met some great people. The nice thing is tha tif you don't liek the work or the boss or something you can just ask for another assignment or say you are busy or whatever. I actually got the job in the bank as a secretary because the boss was super picky and had nothing for a secretary to do after the files were redone (took 2 weeks). I did learn a lot at each job and got to move on when I got bored. I wouldn't start looking just yet though. Give yourself another couple of weeks to adjust. This isn't easy and you need to figure out how to take care of yourself. I know you hate the room at RMH. Is it the way it is decorated, that you are all alone, or something else? If it is the room iteself, and they are empty, ask to move to a different room. It shouldn't be a big deal. For the being alone, try having an audiobook on as you sleep. You can try audible.com and get 1-2 free ones as a trial offer. You can also check the local library because they may have some you can check out and put on your computer or even some online that you could just download. You can also download nook and kindle books to your laptop and read those if you need to distract yourself from being alone. They have a bunch of free titles if you keep searching. Don't get ahead of yoruself and assume you are going to be there all year, or 15 weeks or whatever. Let it happen as it happens. ALso remember that this has been a problem for a while so it will take a while to help her recover. [/QUOTE]
