Unemployment Sucks!

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

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?
