I’m trying to ‘find myself’ and am looking for self=assesment tools that can help me start a re-invention/repositioning plan.

I’m staring down my 60th birthday, and am unemployed. I have a long career in direct marketing, but no education beyong ‘some college’. I need to work to support myself. I’ve took a low-paying job the last time around, in hopes of getting in somewhere and starting over. It didn’t work out, mostly due to the economy. So here I am again…looking for work…but needing to focus on positions that can last and pay me what I need to survive.

I have just started reading the following book. I Don’t Know What I Want, But I Know It’s Not This: A Step-by-Step Guide to Finding Gratifying Work by Julie Jansen. Around $10.00 on Amazon.com. It is sort of a workbook and so far (I’m only on Chapter 4) I REALLY like it.

Hi again. I have to laugh. My friend Gina Mcnew just wrote a blog post about the myriad of skincare and beauty products women use compared to men. And how it gets crazy as we get older. I laughed my butt off! I thought you ladies would enjo

I used Noxzema from the time I was old enough to wash my own face, all through school and into adulthood. Then I decided it wasn't 'sophisticated' enough and went with higher priced, higher end products. About 5 years ago, I went back to
