Well the past couple of weeks have certainly been a whirlwind. After my last post, everyone except me became ill with a stomach bug that was as unpleasant as it could be. I did a lot of laundry and disinfected everything anyone touched. My hands were chapped from incessant washing.
Once that was over and done with, I was back at work for a few short days before learning that I would be back on the job market. Ouch. Being laid off is pretty painful. Not to mention scary! We've got a mortgage, we've got kids to feed, for goodness sake! But really, after about 24 hours, a calm set in and a strong sense of determination took over. Then a little excitement trickled in and ideas started flowing. I've gotten a couple job leads from good friends (resume updating will happen tonight), I connected with another friend who will help design a company logo and packaging for our spice business and I am heading into each moment feeling pretty good about things.
Life is funny that way - just when you think you have everything figured out, it all gets turned upside down.
So, I'll go ahead and put it out there - if you know anyone in the Phoenix area who is in a business that's hiring (copywriting, marketing, tourism, etc.), shoot me an email! Or if you have a business and would like some help with your materials, proofing, editing, writing, etc., let me know. I'm available for hire :o).
