another month down

So, another month has passed, and here I am, former employee number...well, it doesn't matter now anyway. Everyday seems like groundhog day, wake-up, get the kids to school, "work out" then sit at the computer and preview my rolodex. Today, I promise myself, I will think positively. Think, think, think. That's all I do. My daughter, who's five, hates to hear the words "lost my job". She says it makes her sad. She asked me yesterday not to say it out loud anymore. She does provide me with a job each day, filling up the dogs dish with dog food. Yea me! She then will ask me if I'm happy because I had a job today, ahhh, innocence.

When I lost my job, or what I thought was my career in marketing up the corporate ladder, little did I realize I would be one who would be put on the Corporate Platter instead. I have been fortunate that this all happened around Lent, because I just gave up my job for Lent. Too bad I have to then have one by Easter. Thank goodness for the dog dish.

Next post, let's discuss the "opportunities" available via these web career counselors.
