Am making a list today of the jobs to which I've applied, and hopefully by the end of the day will be adding to that. Right now I'm struggling with whether I put in applications at Wal-Mart, McD, etc. to tide me over until I find a professional position. However I am moving next week, which will take some time as well. I think that I need to focus on the tasks right in front of me and then after the 22nd, look for something that might help to tide me over.
One of the biggest challenges about looking for jobs is the time that it takes to apply! With so many online sites - each one requires an account to be set up. That's great and it isn't difficult - it takes time! and I have to remember account information. What I've started doing is writing on the job posting the account info so that it is right "there". What would be better would be a spreadsheet with all the info. Is that akin to alphabetizing the spice rack?????
Yesterday morning I listened to one of my son's best friends make a presentation for Cutco knives. His parents are close friends, too. He did a great job! He was very polite when he asked me if it was okay for him to inquire about my job search. I gave him the update, and then he told me that he clould probably get me a job with Cutco! Not sure I want to do that at this point, however, who knows?

I have about seven or eight Cutco knives, none of which match. The reason is that EVERY summer some friend's child decides this is his big career. The knives are great -- but once the child works through the parent's address book -- the career is usually ended. Happy cutting!
