If you joined me last week you will remember that I’m completing a series on Confidence Building in one of the most competitive markets. The job search! Last week we started out slowly, discussing five questions to start off the search and get an idea of where you want to begin, what you can expect,…

Confidence Building – Your Job Search (Day 1)
The posts I write on successful resume’s and employment have long been my most successful. I know it’s because of our economy and because the search for sustainable employment is long and tedious. Resume formats change frequently; should we have two pages or one, include references, add a cover letter, use all of our experience?…
Pin It2013 – The Year of Full Price Beef
Ever since my husband has been laid off, then went back to work, been laid off again; found work; lost work; received no unemployment benefits, and been turned down at every corner for employment, we’re facing reality and being creative with our money. And with how we bring in money. Not THAT creative… pervs. I’m talking…
Sugar, Holidays, and Puppies Crying
I’ve finished my holidays. I feel like one hundred puppies are crying inside my soul. For two weeks we slept in, hung out in our pajamas, built towers, watched movies, put together puzzles, played in the snow, ate candy too early in the morning, and enjoyed each other. It has taken a long time for…
Little Girl in the Middle

Wait… You’ve Changed.
You’ve been quiet since you got back. I had food poisoning. You’ve had it this long? No, just last week. Oh, I mean since you’ve been back from Mat leave. I’ve been back for over a year. Yeah, you’re not the same. You used to come and visit us in our offices all the time,…
What a Stupid Day
It had been one of the crappiest days I’d had. I couldn’t concentrate on my work because of my anxiety, my psychiatrist, although empathetic, was probably tired of my calls, and my fingers were sore from texting Kimberloo (Mom go Something) my personal therapist, and I was pretty sure that this was the day I’d…
Behind the Firey Doors
The heat in the room grew warmer as the minutes passed, no one anticipated this kind of day, and by the looks of it, no one had dressed for it. Around the room booths were set up representing community organizations, non-profit agencies, and government members that would be answering the questions of the target clients….
