There are a lot of emotions involved with getting laid off from work. Some days are "Up" days and other days are "down" days. I have had one of each this week, and it's only Tuesday. The keys to having an "up" are 1) Get sufficient sleep at night. 2) Keeping busy during the day 3) Taking a walk every day and 4) Sneaking a nap in every day...especially on days that I don't sleep well. (which is most.)
Today has been a really good day. I had a really good job possibility come in from a friend over the weekend. I sent my resume along and received a reply today. It would be an amazing company to work for.
I also started "services" with the outplacement agency my former company has contracted with. I'm amazed at all the things they have available! The have online webinars for resumes, interviewing and so many others. Then there are SkillSoft online classes which could keep me busy for a long time. I like to keep learning new things.
Tonight I made chocolate chip cookies. My middle son said "mom, are you sick?" Meaning, I don't make cookies very often and he was glad I'd made a treat. He happily ate some as did the daughter who said it was just what she needed. so fun.
Tomorrow's another day. Two weeks post L-day. I think I'm going to pull through.
