Laid Off

Well, I was laid off about 2 weeks ago from my job of 6 years. I did go through the grief stages. Now I am at a point that I am starting to get better. I am starting to get things done, not letting the sadness of not finding a job soon and that there is practically nothing in my pay range and skills for me. I will continue to look for a job but also I am trying to find other things to do with my time. I heard on the news the other day, that the average person that was in unemployment was 9 months. I hope we still have our house by then or I have found a job or way to earn money to help pay for bills and debt we have.

Today, it took me 1 hour and half to clean and get laundry started. I was not trying to get it done fast but I wonder around my upstairs and getting things done. Before today, I was filling over whelmed with all the chores and things around the house that I could get done. But what I did to get done in that hour and half, I was surprise myself again. Well, it sounds like some one is ready for his nap and I can get the dishes done.

Boy I am bad about blogging.

Well, I was hope that this blog thing would get me to write more about me or thing I like to write about. I have been thinking about writing for a living. I have a good ideas but I know I am the worse when it comes to grammar. Oh well, I hope that practice make perfect or a least better than I am now. I was trying think of what I can do to kill time before I have to go to bed. I did not want to read new or "window shop" online. I came across that oh ya I still have a blog; and I wanted to try to write more. Okay, I know it is still to just to write that I want to write more.

Well, I feel better about my self. I thought that I was not going any where in life. Still have the same job, same house, felt like I could never get anything done. Well, on Facebook while reading a few my friends say about New Year's Revolutions, and a few where discussing about learning from the year past and hope for a better new year. Also to do not worry about the past; it is done and over. Well, I try to think what has happen in this last year, what change, or did I learn and grow from it. Well, I learn that stress can make me fat, and when I worry about every little thing I did not do, it makes me stress and grumpy. So I am trying more every time I remember to let go of the things I can not control, and let some things go. So I am reaching some of my goals; and that it will take time to do those goals.

So, I hope this is a start of a new habit and that some day and may be it for me to be an Author. I guess I need to take baby steps. :)
