[PositivelyMommy]

Hey Karen, thanks for posting on my thread. I am glad to hear that you are happy doing your own thing lately. What is your state of mind? I could use some direction to get there. Would you say you are still optimistic about a recon or are you just going to leave it to a higher being to decide? Sorry to be so blunt. I would love to have the peace that you have and is wondering all these things.

Karen, I was a stay at home Mom until recently, after the bomb. If you don't mind my two cents. Just start small (e.g. non-profits or library or something like that just to get out there, if possible.) Another tip is to network. Talk to everyone you can about your skills and what you are looking to do. It works, it happened to me. I was talking to a friend and she told me what her son did. I thought it was very interesting and I started looking. I got a small job on my own from the newspaper. Two months work but I had something on my resume. Then her son called her up about another position that was open, my friend called me and the employer called me, we met and hired me without a resume!!! It took several months for it all to pan out but get the word out there and sometimes people will remember what you said and send things your way. Wish you the best of luck!
