Another Monday

So, here it is, Monday again. This marks my 15th since being laid off.
I think I am finally "over it."
I think it's about time...
Not that it doesn't still hurt, and doesn't still occupy much of my mind, but I really think now that the timing was good. (By now, I should have learned to trust God's timing more anyway!) I had a long chat with my old (retired) boss recently, and so many of the things we loved about CED have disappeared - not just due to the economy either. The character of the corporation has been gradually changing over the past few years, as the "old guard" folks have retired and the replacements have brought their ideas about corporate management from other companies. Nothing kills a corporate character like diluting it with other corporations' ideals and strategies. It saddens me to see it go, but I suppose a company that large can't survive in this market with a family-run business mentality.
So, onward and upward!
I had an actualy interview last week. I was not offered the position, or even a second interview. Not sure what I did or said wrong - maybe it just wasn't a good fit. At any rate, now that I've gotten the rejection out of the way, I will continue to plug along, waiting for the right position to pop up on my radar. In the meantime, I will continue to fulfill the requirements of the unemployment insurance.
Regardless of whether I find new employment, I have decided to quit wasting my days in "non-accomplishment." I have lots of projects that need catching up on, and the house and yard could really use some TLC. This morning, I went to get the paper, and it seemed warm - and windy. I was thinking it would be a good day for yardwork, but then the rain started before I even got inside with the paper! So, it's back to housework. I have a list of things to accomplish today - time to get to it!
