Work and loss

So who the hell does she think she is?
Yesterday was one of those days that comes along every few months. Jade, one of the most loved people at work, worked her last day, she is going to nursing school. It is an incredible opportunity for her. When people who have been in my life for a long while and they are leaving, I feel sad, normal right? Well it seems my boss always chooses those times to put the hammer down on us, for any little thing that does not meet her anal retentive standard. So combine the two things happening at once, and well I can't wait to leave this place. My heart gets ripped out over and over. It hurts like hell. I am learning that growing older does not necessarily make life easier all the time. I guess pain will always be here.
Chels goes back to school in a bit over a week, that too makes me sad but in way that is very different, she, she has to go, to leap from that cliff yet again to see how stron her wings are in the wind of this life.
