Making Lemonade

I was let go from my job on Friday. Usually I would let this send me into a spiral, use it as an excuse to eat whatever I want and just tell everyone I'm really stressed.  You have to love a legitimate excuse.  Only, I'm not taking that route.  I don't know why, but I don't even feel compelled to take that road.  Instead, I woke up this morning, emailed my old boss about coming by to get the rest of my things, called my old, old HR manager about continuing my health insurance, went to the gym and FINALLY completed the latest in my couch to 5k (20 minute jog!).  I'm going to apply to three jobs before the end of today, go to yoga, and email my old professors about recommendations for the credential program.  I have a plan, I have support, I have a mysteriously good outlook on the coming future. 

I'm probably going to be using this blog to write up my job hunt as well as my weight and exercise goals.  It's all tied in together I think.  The more I exercise, the better I will feel about myself, the better chance I have of landing a job.  I have the time, so I'm going to use it. 

So it all begins... now.
