New Year - New You

I'm looking forward to some big changes in my life this year.  As I stated in my last blog, I have been laid-off for more than a year.  Although this is true, I have learned so much about myself during this whole process.  One thing that I've learned is that I'm a fighter.  I can still go to job fairs and submit resumes online with the same zeal as if I will get the job.  My attitude has improved because without a positive attitude, you're lost.  Another thing that I've learned is to open my mind to learn new things.  So, I have learned how to make jewelry.  I'm not selling it or anything, it's just for fun.  I began to write blogs as a way to get things off my chest.  It really helps to express yourself every now and again.  At this time, I have a few job opportunities that I hope come through for me.

I just thank God for my husband who has been there without complaining from day one.  I hope that someday we can help other couples that face issues like this by telling them how we got through it.  The more I think about our future, the more excited I get that things are going to improve.  I've heard it said that "What don't kill you, will make you stronger."  I believe that with all of my heart. 

I am going to read Becoming Pregnant - Overcoming Infertility the Natural Way with the hopes that this year is our year to become parents.  I'll definately post updates on that venture. 

Until I express again...stay creative.

Saying Goodbye to 2009

Today is December 31, 2009 and I am looking forward to 2010.  This year has been one of the most trying of my life.  I have been laid off the entire year, but I have a great opportunity that I am looking forward to in 2010.  I really cannot complain about my life and the tests that I've been through.  Maybe there are some people who are reading this blog and is laid off or going through some other difficult times.  My words to you are don't give up.  It may be hard, but just don't give up.  This season will soon pass.
