If there is one thing I will take away from this current job, its the problem of mixing personal life with work life. Never a good idea. Sometimes, I think back on the day's conversation and review it as both an employee and a friend, and realize more often then not, that I've said the wrong thing or spoken out of turn.
They are friends who hired me as an employee, and I need to keep that in mind a little more. Being a live in nanny who actually interacts and talks to the people I work for on a daily basis is much different then the previous positions I've held, as this is the first time I don't have my circle of friends to act as a buffer between me and them. They are basically my only friends here. I need to learn to zip it a bit and keep my conversations with them focused more on the kid.
It would help if my wrist didn't hurt so bad though. I'm finding even the simplest tasks to be nearly impossible and take much longer then normal, such as typing..Carrying kids, changing diapers, ect would be impossible if not for my brace at the moment. I need to go see the doc and figure out what's up, and why the sudden onset of severe pain. It just keeps getting worse. I shudder to think how tomorrow is going to be.
Its hard, but I'm trying hard to not aggravate it any worse then it is. And now, having to redo the laundry yet again is going to make this difficult, especially since I also have been wanting to wash my bedding for the past week now, and I'm going to have to give the dogs baths soon to get rid of fleas.
Work and personal life, bad mixing. I need to treat them more professionally, while still being friendly and more quiet about things.
