Snap out of it, woman!
Ugh, sometimes I hate it when I have a ton of stuff to do.
I don't want to deal with it. But I know I have to. Which just makes me want to deal with it even less.
I have to write up a CV. Not just a resume. And it's like pulling intellectual teeth.
It's so stupid. I'm a writer, for pity's sake. This is what I make a living doing. Okay, not writing resumes, per se, but I've written my share. I just have trouble writing my own. I even have a decent idea what I want to include. It's just the whole sitting down with the computer and doing it.
At least I have finally started at it. So I don't have to look at a blank document. It helps, oddly enough. I'll end up fiddling with it a bunch of times before all is said and done, but that's to be expected.
I should manage to have a productive weekend, since I've been slacking off this week. Even if I have to make myself do something, anything, to get things moving back in the right direction. I know it's a cop out, but I think part of it may be the time of year. Tomorrow will be the fifth anniversary of losing my dad. I'm not in a major funk or anything, but I do feel out of sorts. Not badly, but enough for me to notice. So hopefully the funk will pass in a few more days, and I can get back to being the gutsy, take-charge kind of gal I've become in the last few months again.
Hope you all have a wonderful Friday and a fabulous weekend!

I'm pretty good with resumes and CVs, I do it quite frequently, both in my day job and as a consultant. Let me know if you want me to take a pass at yours.

I may take you up on it once I've got it in some sort of shape, but I really need to do the initial legwork myself first. Since I'm struggling, I refuse to give in without a fight.
I have just applied for a job and I had to do a resume, you have to put it in a whole different kind of language
I love writing resumes and job hunting for people...good luck getting everything together!
