Welcome to a November and a new week! I can't believe how time is flying by. I have been officially laid off for two months. It is hard to explain how I feel about this. At first I was devastated because I was lucky enough to actually LOVE my job but then I realized that maybe there was something out there that I would challenge me more, and help to make a difference. I have stayed very optimistic and I still am. I have been lucky enough to be able to spend a lot of time reading, working on my blog which is something that is more fun for me than anything else, and also work with the Founder/Creator of Stylemom.com. I saw a posting that she was looking for someone to assist her with her schedule and calendar and I thought it would seriously be a perfect opportunity. The work is not full-time work but if it was this would be something I would love to do. I didn't mind Corporate America but once your gone and have more freedoms you realize the life that is out there beyond suits, meetings, and corporate culture. I have realized how much I really want to be working back in Fashion. It is honestly my true love and I feel myself yearning to be back there, although I'm still not ready to leave Philly :-( So I'm going to keep spending 5 hours a day searching over every job board possible, I'm going to continue to change my cover letters for the better, and continue to carry the same bag because I'm worried that I may not find a job by the time my unemployment runs out. Hopefully in the end I will be able to say God closes one door to open another and hopefully that other door will be pink, and sparkly instead of grey and drab!
