First off, let me start by saying thank you to everybody that's sent me birthday wishes today. 32 years young and counting!

Although I'm still looking for full time employment, I have managed to find myself a part-time position that, while it doesn't pay much, gets me out the house a couple times a week and stops me going stir crazy!!

I've not stopped trying for work though. Have sent off numerous application forms and CV's, and attended a few interviews. I've got another one lined up next week. I would dearly love to get back into administrative work, as that is my main love and where I have spent most of my working life. But I have the security experience I've gained from the last few years as a back up - and it's with the security industry that my interview next week lies.  Work is work, right? And if it's security work the goddess means for me to do, then who am I to argue?!

It's not easy being out of work though. I mean, I'm a worker, I prefer to keep myself busy and enjoy my days off when they come. I don't like sitting around the house not working, watching day time tv all day, or just messing about online for the sake of something to do. And you can only do so much reading! The longer it goes on, the harder it's getting to cope with. I'm generally a positive person at heart and am trying to keep my spirits up by thinking that something will come along sooner or later - but then I thought that a month ago.

I know, when the time is right, the goddess will help me find the right job for me. I just hope that day doesn't take too long in coming.
