It Starts

Today was the first day of me being at home.  I woke up, got dressed and went to file for unemployment benefits.  The process was really simple and easy.  The office workers that I interacted with where actually very nice.

Ever since I was told I was layed off something strange has happened to me.  I was upset, disappointed, not too surprised . . . . . but I was mostly upset with myself.  Yes . . . .me.  Why you ask, well.  Mostly because I let my self down, not only was I layed off because of lack of work, but mostly because my skills were not what they where looking for. Yea I am educated and will have a masters in March of 2010, but honestly this degree thing has done nothing but keep me in debt. THEN the group I was fired with where all individuals who where 50 years +!!! I was the youngest one out the bunch.  One has minimal computer experience, the other half deaf, then one with a language barrier.

Okay so once I got over that little battle, I decided I am filling for unemployment and taking my time finding a job I actually want to do.   Sharpening in on my skills, enjoying my job, taking care of myself, taking care of my home.  I actually have time now.  This blog will be a way for me to keep up with my journey and help others also.
