It's a bit wet and miserable in Sydney today, but as much of today will involve working the phone that's not such a bad thing. I made a batch of buttermilk muffins with apple and walnuts last night, and tucking in to one of those and a cup of coffee has been a nice start to the morning. Sometimes I make these with mixed berries (the frozen ones from the supermarket work really well), but this time I experimented with dried apple, chopped walnuts and the tiniest hint of cinnamon. Nom nom. I usually freeze a batch of 12 and then have them for morning tea.
So, thanks again. Your support has meant a lot to me. Can we make a deal? I'll try and stay positive if you guys could agree to give me the occasional elbow pat and a "there there" if I fall off the wagon too badly.

Yum. Muffins. I don't know how you have the willpower to bake and then not eat it all at once! Pear and ginger is a good combo too if you have the urge to make more in 11 days time when these have gone!
Keep positive for the job hunt. Ignore the doom and gloom about the GFC (most of it is in the mind of the media anyway in my opinion). People will always hire good people. :)
Sending down some positive energy to you now.
Think that your skilset leaves you very ably positioned for job hunting in the current climate my dear. Always here for long distance hugs and gin & tonics.
Coming rapidly up on June 30 should have employers looking for people like you. I hope things come your way soon.
In order to win the best jobs and ultimately your dream job in today's world, you have to work like a ninja. Your job search must be different than everyone else's. You have to search where others don't search. You must have a strategic plan of attack.
I don't know if that was supposed to be encouraging, but it sure makes it sound daunting...
What a crap week! Good luck on the job hunt... any prospective employer would be lucky to have you. Hope you can still make it to the Knitting retreat in July, it won't be the ame without you.
Thinking of you.
Good luck and lots of hugs and pats on the back available when needed (virtually).

Have you thought of registering with Sydney Uni temp pool? http://www.usyd.edu.au/sydneypeople/careers/looking_for_temporary_work.shtml
You could walk to work (when it's not tipping it down). And there's no dress code!
