Yes. Friday. Hard to tell when you are unemployed. BUT I have yet to veg out and watch any random tv shows like Matlock or Saved by the Bell, or, a worse fate, an entire Columbo movie. I have actually been quite busy!
Here is the week in review:
By the way, that picture of Barack Obama and me? NOT photoshopped! Okay, but I did buy a life-sized cardboard cutout of Obama (BEFORE I was unemployed). Yes, I took him on a picnic in the woods. And now he is in my living room. Although, sometimes I find him in the kitchen or the bathroom. Either my roommates are moving him or he’s alive.

It’s pretty awesome to be unemployed.
I’ve been unemployed now since August. The economy is so bad where I live there are no calls about work, so I’ve learned to take advantage. You know that vacation you always wanted to take, well I’m on it. I have done some productive things too though, like start the process of creating my own business and I took the opportunity to go back to school.
I just wanted to let you know I think you’re doing the unemployment thing the right way. Don’t forget to tell Barack I think he’s rad!
Thanks Stephanie! I also believe I can use this time to my advantage — work on my blog, my writing, my craft projects, graduate school applications. I’m glad you’ve found a way to make your unemployment successful! There is hope for me!
I like how you noted that the cutout was a “pre-unemployment” purchase.
Way to be fiscally responsible, Maria!
