I’ve now been unemployed for three long weeks. While I wouldn’t presume to know (yet!) what it’d be like to be long-term unemployed, I do feel like I’m getting a feel for this new phase of life.

Some things I’ve learned:

It’s still possible to run out of time even when all your times is “yours.”

It’s easier than I’d like to fall into self-centered, self-absorbed patterns.

It’s great to have the flexibility to work when I want.

I still look forward to time “off.”
