Getting organized

Well let's start at the beginning: I hurt my knee (its swollen), blew the head gasket in my car, lost my job last week, and I'm having blood sugar control problems but I'm working on all of it.

Been to the docs, car at the garage, changed my meds, changed my food, and looking for a better opportunity job wise. Know anyone that has a job opening?

I'm still living in a small town in Wisconsin so I am looking east (in Milwaukee) and west (in Madison) for work. I love living here except for not much work around here that pays very well (mostly retail jobs). I had been driving 65 miles to work and staying in town sometimes during the week. Working too many hours so I haven't had too much social life.

I have applied for Unemployment Benefits (which can be done online now) https://ucclaim-wi.org/InternetInitialClaims/default.asp and joined a local Job Hunters Group on Meetups http://www.meetup.com/ which has a Meetup tomorrow. I also made appointments with two staffing agencies that do both permanent and temporary staffing: Robert Half International http://www.rhi.com/ and Creative Financial Staffing http://www.cfstaffing.com/ as well as updated my resume and applied for a few jobs online.
