Qualified Optimism

The Hope: I am close on several things and at least one will come through.
The Reality: Still no job.
Today: I feel like I am "this" close

I have never been on the market this long and I never want to be in this situation again. All said, life has still gone on for me and I have not freaked out about it yet. There is certainly a lot on the line because there is only one person to take care of the mortgage at the end of the day and that does freak me. After all, the question I don't want to face is how long I can hold out. Hell, nobody looking for a job wants to face that question. I did remember something from a few years ago which is that at the end of the day, I won't go homeless or hungry. I have family. I have friends. There is comfort there but........well it's all a big "but" until I get the FedEx envelope at my door.

I think that there is a time in your life when you realize that
whatever it is that is eating you
whatever it is that you are running from
whatever it is that you are afraid of
you have to stop
turn around and face it
face it
stick your arms out as wide as you can and embrace it
hold on real tight, you see
the tighter you hold on to it, the smaller it gets
and you just embrace it
and embrace it
until you find you find yourself embracing yourself
then you can move on with peace of mind
and all that stuff, just leave it behind.

Do you pack your own?

Not often, plenty of people can do it way quicker than I can and I often don't have time if I am with my team.

What's it like? Is it hard?

Best way to describe it would be like buying a set of king size sheets, taking them out of the package, putting them on your bed, and then deciding that you want to take them back to the store.......in the same packaging. Hard, no. Tedious, hells yeah.

Don't go and do something stupid............

OK this is kinda familiar. This feels oddly like five years ago when I ended up in Florida. Please, oh please don't go and do something stupid. Be patient. Yes, you suck at it. Do it anyway.
