write my resume

I do however, want to slowly recover bits of my ten page Vita that disappeared on an old computer. I live in hopes that I will find a paper copy.

I have had a variety of job experiences that I like to be able to pull off my Vita & put on an individualized resume. In my early professional years I did some temp and unique experiences in teaching. I also “worked” for the honorariums, I spoke at a lot of conferences for a few years. All the sites & various conferences I spoke at are gone, but hopefully SOMEWHERE.

I am not presently looking for employment. I have been at the bookstore for 11 years, by far the longest gig I have held. I rarely stayed more than 2 years at any site teaching because I was moving up the ladder.

As long as I choose to babysit the Chunk, my need for a resume is minimal. My daughter is fully aware of my qualifications. If I could run and teach an Early Childhood Program, I am probably qualified to babysit Chunk.

I just feel I need to keep this goal up, in order to remember to log bits as I find them & to remind myself that someday I will go back into the world again.

I started reading and typing up addresses and phone numbers. Called a few people & chatted about references, made notes to call and type some more.

I think I can officially say I started the silly thing.

I went to Barnes & Noble today and got a book that comes with a software cd on writing resumes. I have some books somewhere, but by the time I figure out where I could have changed jobs. I hope tomorrow to read the book and start writing my new resume.

I will be putting this resume on a flash drive. The whole starting over process, from scratch is too depressing. I can’t believe it has taken me this long to get moving!

My old resume is out of date and lost in a pile of floppy disks for a mac and I run pc now. I have changed career directions.

I write a good resume – why is just getting started not happening – this has been on To Do list for weeks!!!
