A Quick Note

Just popping in to say hello and let you know that I’m still here. I’ve been rather busy with the job search. Filling out applications and tailoring cover letters to fit specific jobs is a life-sucking experience that I hope I won’t have to do for a while. I managed to land a temp to perm assignment, which I start tomorrow.

Thursday, I was in such a state that I went out and bought myself a pack of cigarettes . . . and paid dearly for it on Friday with a nasty headache. I’m still trying to recover from that. I’ve come to realize that I feel much better when I don’t smoke. I’m able to focus better because I’m not so amped. That’s why I haven’t run out to buy a pack or a carton. I’ve just been smoking my husband’s.

I do fine when I’m not around him because I know that there are no cigarettes lying around. It’s my fault, not his.

Hi hon! I’ve been looking for a job as well, and it’s really put a crimp in my blogging and reading blogs! I’s so proud of your accomplishments and determination. I wish you all the best in all you do!

Hang in there with the non-smoking! You will beat it.

I hate job hunting. I’m in a contract to perm position now, and I love it. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that they hire me.

Thanks, Fred. I have the same work arrangement going on right now. So, I’ll keep my fingers crossed for the both of us.
