Well, I’m trying to write my “professional” resume this morning & it’s tedious work. It doesn’t help that I’ve been staying home with my kids for the past 7 years & have forgotten a LOT of my previous work life!!! I’ve been sifting through old pay stubs & searching the recesses of my brain to remember everything. It doesn’t help that I didn’t have coffee this morning, or that it’s raining. I’m tempted to go up to bed & pull the covers over my head.
I might not have my resume done yet, but I found a sweet blouse on clearance at Target for only $6.50!!! I thought I could wear it to my interviews. Dwight suggested that I might want to GET an interview before i start worrying about what clothes I’m going to wear. Silly man!
I feel like I might be more relaxed in the weeks & months to come. These past few weeks have been filled with anxiety, uncertainty & transition of all kinds. Things are settling down now & I’m ready to begin a new journey into the workforce. Now if Jessica will only let me drop her off instead of standing with her every morning before school. I must cut the cord soon, but maybe it can wait until next week.
I’m feeling some of that same hope for a more relaxed schedule with all the kids in school for the first time. It’s kinda nice isn’t it?
Even going to work is a break!! Grown-up conversation and all.
I hope you find a great job that fits with your calling and passion. You didn’t ask for my advice, but I just really believe in waiting for the right thing rather than rushing into something. Speaking from experience!

Dwight must not know about the Power of Positive Purchasing. If you buy it, the interview will come!
