The trials and tribulations of full time Airstream living. This blog will transition to life after the Airstream but I'm sure I will reminisce from time to time.

Hottest Day of the Year?
So apparently it was the hottest day of the year today, well yesterday, and the Airstream stayed pretty cool. I didn't really notice how hot it was until I went to work. I guess our air conditioner isn't set for this kind of heat and we can't get to the controls until Monday. Yay! I get to sweat for eight hours tomorrow too. I can't wait. So my first day back was good. I only knew two of the kids, but I wasn't too surprised. I work in a homeless shelter so kids are always coming and going and after being gone for ten days I would have been disappointed if all of the same ones were still there. I like to see them change and progress and move on and it saddens me when for whatever reason they get stuck. So it was nice to only see a couple of familiar faces. Change is good especially in my line of work, and no two days are ever the same. I love my job, I do, that's one thing I can say. I love what I do. I don't make much money and it can be extremely stressful but in the end youth work is something I will do until I die, even after I retire. This job is the only reason we chose to stay and live in the Airstream. I'd never found a career path that I love until I found youth work and Wynn and I decided that it is certainly something worth staying for.
