Unemployment - What Leaving the Rat Race Has Taught Me Lesson #12

 Watching TV shows about your situation does not help.  The television world is beginning to flood the airwaves with reality shows about our current reality -- unemployed people.  But let me be the first to warn you.  If you are unemployed, watching these shows will not make you feel better.

The Simple Life

I love my mom- a lot. My sister and I fight over who loves her more. I say I have more time invested, but my sister quickly points out that I went away to college leaving a void to be filled. My mom is my mom; she’s getting older and more sentimental.

Unemployment - What Leaving the Rat Race Has Taught Me

          I am fast approaching a full year of unemployment.  It's not something I want to think about.  But as another month goes by with me filling out job applications on-line and trying to do as much social networking as I can, I have been looking back over the past 8 months and thinking about how I have changed in this time.  I would like to share with you some of the things I have learned about myself.

Preserving the Dignity of the "Downsized"

This Labor Day has me feeling grateful for a job, looking guilty about complaining about long hours, and wishing for employment for so many struggling in this jobless economy.   There may be little each of us can do, personally, to spare our loved ones, friends, or co-workers from the pain of unemployment. But there is one small step we might take to help preserve the dignity of the "downsized:" showing compassion through the words we use.

Opening My Kimono in 2010

I no longer want to write, I NEED to.  My life depends on it.

The last eight months have been one of the most difficult periods in my life.  My husband Michael and I have found ourselves in the unenviable position of struggling to find gainful employment, shortselling our home in Florida, having to move out of our rented home in Minnesota and into a small, two bedroom apartment, and fighting off creditors that are starting to bang on our door.  Long story short, we are running out of money.
