Still Unemployed - Kind Of

Well, I am still unemployed and officially looking for work. The huge company I worked for doesn't appear to be hiring in this wonderful economic climate. The only bright spots are:

• Less stress - I am enjoying the time off.
• Contracting gigs - I found a company that hired me to perform contracting PHP development. It isn't the field I was in or want to be in but it pays. The jobs are self-assigning too.
  
• Losing weight - I am eating less and no take-out. Both the husband and I are shedding pounds.
• Personal projects - The mania of being jobless took over and I am cranking out those projects one by one.
