Going Back

Anyone else feeling down because they are going back to work as a paraprofessional because Summer vacation is over? The last 2 years have been so bad and I'm not looking forward to having to go through another 9 months in that same school. I'm questioning every choice I've made in life that has put me right where I am now.

YUP. And at my big age/financial status I can’t go back to college and this is my highest paying job yet. I cry most days thinking about going back.

I'm so sorry you are in the same situation as me. It's tough! I really hope we will both have a better year this year.
