Catch Up

So I haven't posted in a very long while.  There is a very good reason for this.  My normal blogging time used to be when I needed a little break from work.  So during the day, I would click over here, write a quick entry and then go back to the work that needed to be done.  Or if it were a longer entry, I would on it in short intervals throughout the day whenever my brain needed a change of scenery.

The reason I haven't been able to do that is because I don't go to work anymore.  On August 18th, the company that I was working for had a handful of layoffs and I just happened to be one of them.  I was a little annoyed by the suddenness of it.  The company had just secured a huge contract that was supposed to save everyone's jobs.  Apparently not.  In the end, however, I was esctatic.  I was never happy at that job.  Now I was out free and clear and I even got a little bit of severance.

For the past 2 months, life has been pretty relaxed.  Unemployment is really quite fantastic.  I do have some pretty good job leads and will likely be employed by the end of the year.  But in the meantime, I'm enjoying the opportunity that I have in front of me.

I'm sorry that happened to you! Seems like more and more people are getting laid off. But it's great that you're looking at the whole situation in a positive light; that will very likely help you come out ahead in the end, job or not.
