Looking for a job is very much a job in itself. Looking for a job and being a single mom is like having 2 full time jobs. I am IN NEED OF A VACATION!
I'm currently staying at my mom's in Manhattan due to chemical fumes seeping into my own apt from construction in the apt. below. So life will continue to be stressful and posting will be light, as anyone who works or has been in Manhattan can attest, that life here is noisy, over stimulating and energy depleting.
In the mean time, I encourage everyone, AND I MEAN YOU! to go over to Bill Whittle's site of Eject! Eject! Eject for his long awaited essay installments since his hiatus: Sanctuary I and Sanctuary II. Grab you're favorite drink and prepare yourself to have your heart and mind stimulated for an hour or so.

Posted by: RP at May 21, 2005 10:56 AMI, too, am looking for work. So, I know exactly what you mean by looking for work is a fulltime job. Kudos to you for doing that AND being a mom at the same time.
Just remember - always keep your spirits up - some employer out there somewhere will eventually find you to be the ideal candidate for their open position!

I would have to - ya know - actually work.
And that's tough for me.
GoOD luck
