The last time I was laid off, it took me five months to find a job. It wasn't pretty either. So many of my weeks were depression filled. You know that saying "Fake it until you make it"? Well I tried really hard to follow that philosophy but there came a time where I didn't care. I didn't want to see anyone, talk to anyone or even venture out of my abode. I was a pretty sad sack. Thank goodness my family and friends stood by me and put up with my poop.
Now it's different. I am making an effort to stay happier, healthier and social. One thing that has helped me so much is working out. I've always worked out but this time I am on a mission. That mission is to fight off the stress of this crappy situation. I've lucked out here in my complex. We have a personal trainer that teaches five classes a week. I am totally taking advantage of that. And it's paid off. My sister, I will call her Sister B commented on the fact that I now have a butt. She couldn't believe it. I was Flat Stanley all my life and now I am headed into Jennifer Garner's Alias territory. One good thing has come out of the unemployment blues - I am bootylicious now!
I feel better now that I have vented. Even though I really can't celebrate TGIF, I will still have a great kickin' soundtrack. Enjoy!!
I know this isn't the actual video but when I hear
this song all I think about is this hilarious skit.
RIP: Swayze & Farley. You are missed!!
Thanks for reading my blog!
