Welcome to The Italian Princess!


Yes, it's me! Here I am.....doing something I've always wanted to do. I've read other blogs and always felt, hey I can do that! Why the Italian Princess you may ask....well many of you know that my nickname is Queeni, however I feel that I needed to start out smaller with my blog.....and The Italian Queeni just didn't have the kind of oomph I wanted....so hence The Italian Princess....and as you all know, I am a legend in my own mind and if I want to be royalty, then so be it.

So, here goes....for those of you who know me, you know that my life (as I like to refer to it) is like a Pineapple Upside Down cake. Meaning, I'm still my sweet self, but everything that I knew as routine, comfortable and all that goes with it is now reversed.

For those of you who aren't that familiar with my situation, I have been unemployed for the past 14 months. This is beginning to get on my nerves. During this time I have sent out (approximately) 260 resumes in response to job postings....have had about 6 interviews and NO job offers! This sucks.....I have education, skills, experience and expertise......What is wrong with you employers, don't you know good talent when you see it???? So as I sit at my computer watching the cursor blink back I am at a loss as to what to do next....

To maintain my sanity, every morning and evening, I count my blessings. Yes, I do have a roof over my head (but not sure for how long), a king-sized warm bed to sleep in at nite and food in my 'fridge, a dynamite son....my cat, Boo, has a full bowl of food (plus all the birds and mice he catches and brings home to show he is trying to pull his weight around here)....I do have a strong faith that God is with me and that He won't take me down any path and just leave me there...and, in addition, I've said countless Novenas (good Catholic girl), lit candles to the Blessed Mother and have even cast a few spells! (Don't worry guys, I only use my powers for good...)

So if any of you have any suggestions concerning what direction I could take, send 'em along to me......

P.S. By the way.....yesterday was my birthday......so a really nice gift would be EMPLOYMENT!!!!
