HOW IS BEING UNEMPLOYED FEEL?

I have had a job since I was 16, i have never not had a job because being a single mother i couldn't afford not to work.  Being in the mortgage industry this day and age has been a struggle to stay employed.  Seattle Mortgage has been a great place to work for the past 10 years and have seen many changes though the years with in the same company.  My kids only know of me working at Seattle Mortgage.  I feel really blessed to have survived this long with them.  With that said me taking some time off to figure out what i want to do when i grow up has been hard.  I have a supportive family and husband that letting me stay  home has been fairly easy.  I have found that i have nothing but time on my hands.  Usually when i get home from work it is RUSH, RUSH, RUSH, between making dinner, getting kids to sports activities and such i was always felt rushed. I forget that i have time so when i go and cook dinner i rush though it when i can actually take my time and enjoy cooking again.  I have projects that i will be working on shortly and know that i don't have to rush because i have all week to get them done.  One thing that i am noticing is that i am forgetting things like crazy.  I feel like i don't use my brain enough i guess.  I am getting used to the idea of being home.
