So It's Week 3

Welcome to week three of unemployment! Can I get an amen? Or a woo woo? I would like to say that I've been using my responsibility-less time to it's full potential with plenty of reading, exercising and catching up with friends rolled in there with the job searching. Hmm - I've read 1 chapter in a book, taken a few walks, and caught up with no one. I have however played plenty of online games, watched a lot of television and woken up without an alarm.

After a few hard days I'm not as upset as I first was. I'm very thankful not to be working at my old job. For certain I would have liked to leave on my own terms, and, still can't think of any better reason than a paycheck to continue working there. I'm still trying to figure out what direction to move next - and if there's a way I can find a job to stay content at for more than 6 months.

I've also been wondering a lot about stress and my ways of approaching and dealing. It seems as though denial is perhaps my strategy. I say this because I think I'm doing well and then one little tiny thing hits and I'm off. Off to scary crazy extremes. I'd like to dig into that a bit more too. For now I think I'll play more games...
