It makes you feel alone and small.<br />I think of you often. I think of you when I get mad at my job and feel blessed to have it at the same time. I think of so many of the people in this country who don't have jobs. And I wonder 'how long can this last?' Because it's so wrong.<br />I have always admired you from afar. Ever since I first laid eyes on your site and heard your story. You have something my mother used to call 'moxie'. Call it that or gumption, or just a good attitude.Country Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14432335393660130255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-67943803887971626242009-09-12T13:28:13.200-05:002009-09-12T13:28:13.200-05:00I'm new to your site and I'll get this out...I'm new to your site and I'll get this out of the way: Roll Tide and War Eagle. ok. Born and raised in north Alabama but been in FL the last 5 (sob) years. Real estate bubble burst/investment portfolio reduced by 70%/worked *ss off but got laid off n.e.way/back in college to lurn somethin' new which sucks/working for almost half what I made before/miss my momma, too. if you don't want to be cheerful or positive then don't be. Just tell yourself that after the pity party you'll pull yourself up by your bra staps and try again tomorrow. But for today you're going to feel the way you feel. Your photography is sphere.

Every job I have ever gotten was from directly applying without ever seeing an ad. You never know, a company could be about to lose someone when they get your resume in the mail and they could think, "Hey, now we don't have to post that ad!"<br /><br />But I know how frustrating it has to be, my life being full of frustration the past couple of years. Your writing, your positive attitude, your photography... it all helps me keep going. So thank you. :)<br /><br />...CelineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-38468173920579094592009-09-12T08:15:03.973-05:002009-09-12T08:15:03.973-05:00i went thru this in may 2008 and it was so scary. ...i went thru this in may 2008 and it was so scary. my heart goes out to you!!! please keep the faith and keep trying. have you thought of getting off monster, etc. and go on a personal campaign with resume in hand?julie kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02009127575536333064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-60357397410700438432009-09-12T06:44:24.223-05:002009-09-12T06:44:24.223-05:00So sorry, Char.

They are the hours I am most honest with myself and, I suspect, the reason behind why I sleep so little. <br />But there's clarity in the morning upon waking. And there's a time for pity parties (sometimes they last for weeks) and a time for trying something different. My vote is for your photography. Your heart seems there and, if you have family to help you out, I'd give it a try if your previous job experiences aren't panning out careers as they should. But the market will turn around. Time. It's always a matter of time. That's the brutality of it though, huh?<br /> With that, sending you warm wishes from IA. :)~h~https://www.blogger.com/profile/05341133302838419536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-65529935712493504162009-09-11T19:03:49.157-05:002009-09-11T19:03:49.157-05:00Char, I had no idea!

I would be lost without my job I love so much, not to mention I can't imagine how I'd make it even a few months without that paycheck. (Makes mental note to start saving, even just a little every month . . . IMMEDIATELY!) I haven't been out in the job market for over 25 years, so I'm no help there. How are you managing?
