It's been a month…lots to report
by ZanneIt has been exactly a month since I last blogged. It has been a roller coaster of a month. For the past 2 years and 2 months I worked for Wyndham. Unfortunately with the state of the economy and other issues, Wyndham laid-off 250 people in the Corporate Orlando office on October 15, 2008. US wide it has been said to have been 1,600, although the company publicly has not announced the final numbers. Needless to say I have been through all the stages of emotions, but luckily within 2 weeks I landed a contract job with Disney Online. And know how lucky I am. I have to say the lay-off has been easier with my “support” group on FaceBook and the incredibly talented and very nice people at Aquent and Disney. As they say, one door closes and another one opens.
Just think this time next week we will know who will be the next President of the United States is and this economy will bounce back.
I hope to get my mind back to creating, so hopefully I will have some layouts to show you soon!

I had no idea, Zanne. You seem to be handling it very well and am glad to hear you things worked out for you with a new opportunity at Disney Online.
Thank goodness for friends and Facebook. It sure does help when you’re surrounded by those who care.
Best of luck to you at Disney.
