Unemployment Sucks!
I was a stay at home mom, and I loved it! I wore many hats (still do, only older ones) and was very involved in my kids community. Well the kids grew, and my search for my identity began... slowly at first, with some part time jobs that got me out of the house. When My husband was laid off, due to mergers, after 30 some odd years in the same industry, we were hard hit. And so my reinventing began in earnest. Quality full time jobs for a middle aged woman without a college degree are hard to find, so I began collecting part time jobs. My most recent adventure required me to become social media active, and I am hoping that this adventure with WA will be the Glue that brings everything together for me. I certainly have plenty to write about. Turtles anyone?

Hi There!
Thank you for the follow and following right back.
I am a stay at home mom too. Decided to be one when I got laid off and my daughter was two years old. Best decision we ever made. Now she's in kindergarten so needed to find something to occupy myself other than drive my husband crazy. There were only enough volunteering I can do. That's how I found WA. No I don't have turtles. But we had goldfish. Best of luck to you!

I don't have turtles, but I do understand how difficult it is trying to get back into the job market after being an at-home mom.
I know it's hard being unemployed, and the feeling of not knowing who you really am. Who am I and what do I like? I wish you all the best in your online business endeavor, hope you will find yourself here! :)

It does, but if you know you were good at your job you mustn't take it personally. Fortunately you've acquired some great experience that will serve you well in developing and growing your own home business.
