Jobless

I am officially unemployed!  My company closed the Denver office and my last day was May 31.  I have several leads on jobs and I am looking forward to what the future brings for my career! 

It’s been a little bit of a struggle these first few days to transition back into being home.  I’m not used to not having alone time (lunch, coffee breaks, shutting my door) and the kids constantly being so needy.  I’m also not used to listening to whining/crying for 12+ hours a day.  That can drive a person batty!  Chris and I are getting used to being around each other and redefining chores and parenting roles.  We seem to be in each other’s way a lot!

At the very least I am getting 2 months off!  This means I can:

  1. Blog more
  2. Take the kids to see the: train museum (again), firefighter’s museum, natural history museum (again), children’s museum, zoo, royal gorge, tiny town, movies, and so on.
  3. Decorate my house:  Charlotte’s room, Cooper’s room, master bedroom
  4. Finish decorating some rooms:  Guest bedroom, my office, Chris’ office
  5. Renovate my house:  Master bathroom and basement
  6. Paint the outside of my house
  7. Take a vacation
  8. Stick to my exercise regimen – Couch to 5K
  9. Garden
  10. See friends and family
  11. Pull out my camera again and take more photos

I think I could get used to this no job thing.  If only I could always get paid for not having a job.  That would be awesome!
