All the lonely people....

Where do they all come from?

There are a few Eleanor Rigby's on my schedule. It is very sad when the person you are visiting clings to you as you are leaving. Full of fear to be alone again. Those long long days can pull you down when you are feeling vunerable.

A few other clients are in the midst of moves. For some it is a good thing and others view it as a long-avoided, now inevitable horror. They know that no matter how you dress it up, this is likely the last stop on the ride. One or two are eagerly anticipating having more people around to interact with, and more care if they need it. I know they all but they do not know each other. Because of confidentiality, we cannot pair them up one to another, even when we know they would enjoy each other's company. No matter; they will meet soon enough.

One of my little Eleanors is not moving. But she should be.

I made one of these calendars at www.despair.com
Noire of course, but very funny.

Sometimes you really want to tell all those motivational rah-rahs to shove it.
Despair.com does it for me.
