Exhausting!

When the time comes for you to be unemployed, you dream about all of the things that you want to accomplish that you didn't have time for when you were working. 

Remember when you were so stressed out with the daily grind that all you could hope for was a really long vacation so that you could recover from the stress and then come back to work refocused and refreshed? Yeah, well - after about two weeks of being unemployed, you realize that you haven't done ANY of those things that you said you were going to and you excuse it away by saying things like..."well, I need time to get over losing my job. Once I get past the emotional part of this, THEN I'll start all of those things." 

"I have time now - so I'll do a little bit at a time."

"My mother has been sick and I got sick so now I have to recover from being sick - then I can do that stuff I said I would...do."

I'm exhausted just reading all that crap. Making all of those excuses is exhausting. Sleeping in is getting exhausting. Checking Facebook every hour is exhausting because all of your friends know you are home so they are challenging you to Word Twist and Scramble more often. It's exhausting keeping up with all those challenges. 

Okay, I'm exhausted now by this blog. See, being unemployed is exhausting. I cannot WAIT to see what tomorrow brings.
