HollyD Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 I want to thank each and every one of you . . . who offered me words of hope and encouragement! You have no idea -- JUST how uplifting it was for my bewildered spirits to know that there are people in the MFC community that ♥ me as much as I ♥ them! . . . It is my first official day of being unemployed. Feels weird - to say the least. But, I am not anywhere near as heart-broken as I was yesterday! Things are looking up - already! . . . I could have sat there yesterday and cried (well I did for a while) then I wiped the tears away - and said you know what . . . this is not going to help me or my family - SO I got dressed *again* (Make-Up was all over my face - BLACK running down my cheeks) S C A R Y . . . and I went to the local career center to see make a plan for my future - and explore my options. . . . and the options are looking quite good. Better then g o o d - they are GGGRREEEAAATTTTT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollyD Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 By the way -- for those of you who were confused THIS never was a goodbye thread!!!! I couldn't bare a goodbye -- it was a means for me to easily communicate when I have long times of absence . . . I mean come on -- I am here pretty much all day EVERYDAY! It is torture for me! MFC is like a drug to me -- it is my own personal brand of heroine! (is that how you spell it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HollyD Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 This is my day yesterday - after I pulled myself together following the news and my break-down! I got ready, as I said -and went to the career center - they were AWESOME there . . . you know how people often say *we are here to help* but, they don't really mean it --- well these people said it - and they MEANT it! I filed for unemployment - which I will be getting. I will also be getting (in the mean time) some benefits for the kids - while I am unemployed. BUT THE GREAT NEWS IS: due to the economic stimulous package that President Obama just signed - my county actually NOW has funding avaliable (never happens in this area) and TUESDAY - February 24, 2009 . . . I am going for orientation I AM GOING TO COLLEGE to get a 'CAREER' (not just a j o b) so that I will be able to come out of this TERRIBLE situation - and be more self sufficient to take care of my family the way I want to - the way they DESERVE! I am SO happy and excited -- because under ANY other circumstances - I would have never been able to go back to school. It truly is a blessing in disguise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ♥ Thank you all for you love and support! You lifted me up . . . to beleive that this was not the end of my world - rather the start of a whole new one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isa Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 OMG Holly!!! Im really sad to hear that! Even more in your situation. I totally understand how you feel about finding anew job on a country which is on recesion, cause I have the same problem, but, at least, my parents are taking care of me. Dont you have someone who can help you??? I would do it, but I find it kinda hard. All I can do is wish you the best luck ever and cross fingers for you and your kids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They recommended that I go for Paralegal Studies since I worked at a Law Firm for the past 2 years. But - i KNOW that is something that I personally would NEVER want to do! I am hopeing there is something avaliable in the counseling field. whether it be a college admissions counselor or guidence ANY TYPE really! MY ULTIMATE goal *dream* in life has always been to be a psychologist -- so we will see what happens! i will let you know Tuesday when I get back from orientation!!!!
