At last, I have found a positive in not working!
Today I can snigger madly at the sight and the thought of everyone else shuffling back to work bleary eyed and grumpy after the Christmas holidays! I can stay warm and cosy indoors with no nasty boss to face nor a backlog of work that was cheerfully abandoned in the pre-festivity highs only to be faced this morning. There is a silver lining to every cloud! ;)
However, the sniggering will be short lived because here starts the rest of my life. There are still issues to be addressed at home since the death of my father and things are not all as straightforward as I might like them to be but the job hunting begins again, in earnest, from now.
This is not going to be an easy nut to crack. I've been out of work for one reason or another for getting on for two years now and paid employment still appears to be about as rare as hens teeth (thanks Gordon), but try I must. It's all a bit daunting and scary, I have lived through so many changes and oddities in the two years in question that really I just would like to hide away for a while but that's not an option.
So here starts phase one of trying to re-build my life yet again from the ground up.
You would think I was used to it by now really wouldn't you!
*I may or may not blog the minutiae of the hunt, I'll see how I feel, last time it became too depressing to keep going over one rejection after another!

Best of luck with the job hunt!
Being in Scotland, I'm not back at work until tomorrow but I've wasted most of my day so far waiting for a Asda delivery which doesn't seem to want to turn up...
good luck with your job hunt.
You go girl! (I heard that on the telly!)
If you need anything just let me know. I know you have the cv typing down 'cos you are a cleverer egg than I but if you need anything else...tipex... paper...envelopes... chachter reference...(Who can't spell) just shout flour! xx
Well I shall keep my fingers crossed that you find something that is wonderful soon!
My Mommeh hasn't worked in a few years and now she has to look for work, too, so we know how you feel.
Try exploring the options for retraining into a career path, I know they have it down here in Cornwall but I am not sure about where you are. What do you want to be? xx
