It's hard to deal with life especially on our own. Break it down in pieces that you can handle. One at a time. It's back to those baby steps. I think I would start with finding the old resume or list your jobs last first. Don't forget the other activites, organization skills, telephone skills, computer skills, life skills, heck any skills you can think of. And smile. Never forget......look in the mirror and say, "You would be very lucky to have me on your team." Say it again and again, and again. Oh and get a new blouse or top. You can apply for most jobs online so just get the top cause you want to. Oh and go back to the mirror and repeat your motto...attitude is everything. :) Sharon

Nicker, I truly will pray for the right job to open up for you if you want to stay in that area. Also, for your house to sell if that is what you determine is best. I still would love to come visit, but cash is tight (aren't we all in a financial tight right now?) Keep asking God to guide your steps and thank him for all your blessings. I believe something good will happen for you! Hugs to you, my friend!

These ladies have already said all I would have as to tips, so I'll just say that I have fingers and toes crossed that the right job will come and they will KNOW what a treasure they will have in you!

And what sharon said? RIGHT ON! attitude is everything!

WISHES AND HOPES FOR YOU in all areas, and GREAT LUCK TO YOU!

HUGS diane

I agree with all the tips you have already received. You can get tips on resume writing online...don't forget to get tips on a cover letter, too! (And proof, proof, proof! - so many are "ruined" by errors!) "Sell" yourself (great tips from Sharon!). Good luck!

I can understand the need for motivation. I have a hard time keeping up at home - just don't seem to have a lot of energy there. I recently heard "Grief takes a lot of energy" and I think that is very true. Take care of yourself.

Nicker, Good for you to want to do this, that is the first step to motivating yourself. I agree with the advice you have been given about getting a resume and job hunting.

I have been so lethargic with my bout with Shingles and motivation is what I needed. I looked for it through God and I will give you what I used.

I told myself that procrastination is not in God's description. If it is not His, I sure do not want to do it anymore. Why was I procrastinating so much? Because I was afraid to go out to the unknown.

So, I told myself fear is not God's description either.

I have been able to do more just because I do not want those two things to describe me.

NewRoads, is right prayer will help you for what ever is planned in the future. I pray that God sends heavenly and earthly angels to guide you.

Hugs & God Bless,
Judy

Just say ....it's time

I've been thinking about this for a while, Nicker. My advice would be to find something you would really like to do.. something you have a talent for. Do you like working with people? Do you like working with organizing things? Find a place you can bring something to and then let them know what you can offer. We are always looking for people who have a desire to do something well, whether it is working with people, data or things. Every job is a people job as well, and you are a wonderful caring person. Let your perspective employer know this and bring your people experience in. I agree with Carol. Know what the business does and let them know how you will help them reach their goals. You may find a job you really love. I'll say prayers for you.. Darleen

OK I got a resume done ONE page with a cover letter that I am using from googling

This is for a vet office front desk position 3/4 time while asking for previous vet experience says not necessary but wants good people skills and computer skills which I have lots of experience there so my cover letter covers my life on the ranch, with animals while resume covers my customer service and computer stuff...

SO tomorrow will deliver....

Thanks now to get my place advertised for sale SIGH
