So Far…
(album cover art found here)
I know it’s soon to say, and I know I’ll change my mind in a few minutes, but right now? I don’t mind being unemployed in the least. I mean, I haven’t even started receiving Unemployment benefits yet.
I don’t want it to go on too long, and with most of the people I know saying their companies have hiring freezes, it’s worrying. But still. Not a bit of urgency in me yet. I’m going to give myself a few days, in which I only work connections, email people I know, that sort of thing. I’ll start the grunt work later this week, the searching the job boards and the newspaper. I’m just not there yet. Maya has a 5 day weekend this week, and Ted doesn’t start work until next Wednesday. So I’m feeling unmotivated, and like I’d like to enjoy a little downtime before stressing out.
Don’t worry. I’ll get my looking-for-work mojo going soon. Just.Not.Yet.

I think you need it. When it’s time, it will all come together..until then, enjoy life.

Take as much time as you feel you can. I took a whole month of not looking the last time I was out of work which happened to be around the holidays and it was wonderful.
Enjoy this time as much as you can1

Don’t blame you one bit. Can’t say what I’ll do right now, but I would really like to take some time off. Guess it all depends on what happens between now and May. Taking the summer off sounds really good right now………

Good for you for not worrying today. That’s a good thing.

I think you’re making the right move, there’s no sense in panicking. Enjoy the time off with your family!

Take the break, J…you’ll be working before you know it, and if you don’t enjoy some of the down time now, you’ll probably kick yourself for it later!

Hey J
Just saw your comment about “Gen” over at Msmamma’s. Poor thing!
At least you can afford to feed her steak?
Hope your Mojo gets you a new job-o!

The first week it is like a big shock. You have to take time to get over it and wind down. This is due time for you J. Do not feel guilty. Enjoy!

For the first month, it’s usually a welcoming break from that insanity called work. After a month, that’s when I get anxious and stuff… please please enjoy it right now while you can! You so deserve the down time. *hugs*
