Funemployment: Day 7

Source

Leaving my job last week was a tremendous struggle for me. I've been struggling with a lot of unresolved questions and simply letting go - it's hard to do something for four years and just turn it off one day. I'm finally back home from my trip to Tennessee and am full speed ahead to what is next. 

For my flight back, I bought this goody and read over half of it on my way home last night:

It has been such an inspiration for me already. Even though these women are from every line of work you could think of, every race, sexual orientation, and I found myself relating to every story. To see that these women failed at jobs, failed as tasks, that what they wanted to do didn't work out - it's given me a whole new hope for my next step.

Today I had Treasurer and Point of Contact training for my Family Readiness Group which will both be great additions to my resume. After talking to an alumna who has done consulting in the past, I have reached out to some contacts in the community about advising students with their college search this summer. And I've been in touch with a staffing agency to set up an appointment later this week. 

There is no time to dawdle - although laying by the pool would be nice :) And my blog is no exception - I have some exciting news coming up so stay tuned!
