Keep on swimming, swimming, swimming...

Been out of work for 10 months now. Ugh. It feels like forever. And it's very frustrating. Yet somehow, I manage to keep myself incredibly busy. There's the kids, there's the whole taking every single little job that comes my way regardless of the pay thing (which ends up never being worth it because the time required to do these little jobs is extremely disproportionate to the pay), training and fundraising for the upcoming LifeCycle ride, dealing with lots of fun legal issues, school...geez! How would I manage even if I *had* a job???

The hours and hours of job searching, just to not even end up with interviews is frustrating and sad. Web and print design jobs are *not* going to pay the bills either - not when everyone else is broke too! I've been trying that route.

So, what am I going to do? Well, I'm not entirely sure yet. But I know that it's not likely to be waiting for someone to see my worth and give me a job. I'm going to have to create my own job. The trick is finding a niche market that I can be excited enough about that my ADHD doesn't cause me to just check out after a few days.

I *think* I may have discovered the thing I can do, but it's going to require a lot of hard work, a business plan and probably some investors willing to take a chance on my idea. I'm not yet ready to reveal what my plan is, but the wheels are in motion and I'm confident it's going to come together in fairly short order. And I'm REALLY excited about it!

With that, I shall sign off. More later!
