Having a Blast

How exciting?! I've been loving all the changes that have been taking place in my life and it's wonderful to recognize all the steps I have taken towards a more positive me. After I quit my job in January I was relieved. I no longer had to dread dealing with a boss who had no people or management skills nor did I have hold my breath or my tongue while she continued to change the prices with out any notice. Alright, yes, I was looking forward to finding a job that was well staffed, experienced and encouraged positive ethics.... I still am.

The job search continues. I really didn't think that I would still be unemployed as of today. I figured with the industry I have the best expertise in and the jobs I've been applying for would be the most in demand. Turns out that industry is hiring but the jobs that are readily available are the ones that have "themes". You know the ones I am talking about, "No experience needed must wear a bikini and be flirty" The Peepshow stands, that's what I call them. Although I am a beautiful Lady I would not ever work at these coffee stands, no thank you!

I almost couldn't deal with all this free time I've had. A few weeks ago, I felt like I was in a black hole because my efforts to find a job seemed useless. Forget that noise! I changed it up. You see, that is not all I have going for me. I have great friends and a Man in my life who give it to me straight. Lately I've been working hard on my success as a vocalist and songwriter. I just stepped it up and started working on that "To Do List" that I had not got the chance to work on for my music project. Things are coming together and my efforts to have a band and start performing within the next month are just around the corner.

So, even if I don't have a job working in a cafe sharing a smile and something new, I have music to share with the world and inspiration all around me.
