Still Reading and Blogging But...

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm still around even though I haven't posted in a while, but I do have a bit of an announcement.

Things are likely going to be a little quiet at Melissa's Midnight Musings for a while. I'm not sure if I've mentioned it before, but I have been out of work for a long time.I'm a bit embarrassed to say how long.

I have been searching for a job ever since I returned to the United States after my time in Canada, but haven't had the luck of being able to find anything. As of last week, that is. I was offered a temporary position with a local company for 30 hours a week for at least the next 30 days. The position could be extended, but there are no promises. While I'm hopeful that the position may be extended for a longer period of time,  at this point, I'm just happy to have the chance to be working again, and to help this company grow.

With that being said, going from not having a job to working almost full time will be an adjustment, so the blog will likely be quiet for a while. I'll still be reading and blogging, as best I can, but with the time involved in getting to and from work and working full days, my time is going to be very limited. I'll have to remember to stash my Kindle in my bag so that I can read on my lunch break and while I'm waiting to catch the bus home.

I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm not going to abandon this blog or anything like that, but work will definitely come first and family priorities after that, so things will likely be a little sparse around here for a bit. All events that have already been scheduled will be worked on and published on the blog at their scheduled times.
