Alright so its been, what...3 months?
You know, we really fell in love with Greenville and we still do enjoy it. There are lots to do and see, great restaurants and did I mention the weather? When I move to a new city I do my part to be a tourist and experience as much as possible.
A few of my favorite things so far:
Falls Park at the Reedy River, downtown G-ville (my oasis)
Smoke on the Water Restaurant (Eclectic Southern Cuisine and cheap! SO GOOD!)
Greenville Public Library (preferably Hughes-Main in downtown)
and again did I mention the weather?
Oh and one more thing, Greenville is booming with the creative-types. In fact through Twitter alone in the past few weeks I've come across a lot of fun folks. I've also discovered my niche. Social media!
Now let's get back down to reality a bit. I haven't had much luck in finding a job.
"You mean you don't have a job? What do you do with yourself?!?!!!"
I sit home and eat bon-bons. That's what I do.
No, I work my butt off to do what I can and make something happen. A few things seem promising and in the meantime I've developed my own web site for some freelancing, Glass Half
Full Communications
Mind you, its not much. Give me a week, we'll have the guts finished.
I've constantly read the articles,the blogs and done everything possible to land some sort of employment. I'm realizing now, maybe this is my "break" The break to be me for awhile. Some people take it after high school before running off to college, some right after graduating said college and some do it at 50. It'll be a blip in what I ensure will be a long and successful career. Have no doubt, Damsel in a Dress will make waves and take names.
In the meantime I've been able to learn some great meditation techniques at the Greenville Center for Mindfulness, right here in Greenville! Dr. Dale Dingledine is the founder and probably one of the best resources in the region. I can't say enough about my experience, probably because I'm only halfway through the stress management program. I know now it has been my saving grace.
Greenville may not be my dream home, but its home for now. At least its a journey I was willing to take. And a risk I jumped into, head first.
.....I'm still icing the bump on my head....
