BUT - if you are planning to work in the near future, just keep in mind that it's easier to get a job when you have a job. A job that makes Big Money might buy you some nice things, and keep you busy until you find the job you want. Otherwise, enjoy your leisure. It's a wonderful thing! Maybe you could spend it - learning to read the temperature in Celcius?<br><br>xoxoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489911025579199899.post-83086102004583682322005-08-28T14:05:00.000-07:002005-08-28T14:05:00.000-07:00I think that you might need a bit more time off pe...I think that you might need a bit more time off personally.....you are enjoying those days SOO much. When it's the right job and time to go back you will know it. I was not sure I would like working part time but I love it. I love the office, the people and I'm not making the big bucks but I am enjoying myself. It's reasonable to want to earn ENOUGH money but at this time in our lives we need to do something that we like and have enough energy left for some pleasure! Good luck.

However, I believe you give the Vodka way too much revelatory credit. :) Dalene of AHH at http://journals.aol.com/ahhliving/AHH<br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489911025579199899.post-21804965829750185442005-08-28T15:35:00.000-07:002005-08-28T15:35:00.000-07:00BEHOLD the joys (and curse) of VODKA!

When you hate your job, it affects every damn thing in your life, and I think that, especially with salespeople, it can affect the way you see yourself. Sales is definitely a learned skill, and when I realized that I could sell (and sell well), I felt almost guilty (which is one of the reasons why I know I'm messed up). Your overall life is more important than any job.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489911025579199899.post-11893447461607643562005-08-28T18:38:00.000-07:002005-08-28T18:38:00.000-07:00Enjoy your unemployment. :-)Enjoy your unemployment. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6489911025579199899.post-8923953420378117062005-08-28T18:50:00.000-07:002005-08-28T18:50:00.000-07:00Mary, it you're selllin', I'm buyin...Mary, it you're selllin', I'm buyin'.

I am ...I think that you have things under control. I am on disability and my pros and cons are of a different nature. My recent physical therapy sessions were goaled to my being able to sit in a chair for more than 30 minutes. If I don't exert myself to get the old scar tissue broken down and new tissue formed, I will continue suffering daily severe chronic pain. So I strain myself, and then I have to stop the exercise, and then heal and start again. I am making improvement. On another note. I having been struggling with the print you commented that you liked and I said it was not up to standard. One day I concentrated so much, that I was able to produce the print that had been such a challenge. Now I have that print saved on two computers and will make additional back ups. My next attempt is to be able to sit and concentrate at my easel and work on a acrylic painting that Journal people have given me photos that I need to add details. If I don't take medication, I am not able to work and be productive. It causes me problems as well as helping me to live a more "normal life". I will let you know how my life is improving.
