2010 could have been worse considering that I was unemployed the entire year. Things have worked out to where I will be able to get the full amount of unemployment benefits. My wife got a job which is good in some ways [income] bad in others [getting more and more entrenched in a place where we don't want to live and where I can't seem to find a job.]
On the job searching front, I estimate that I applied to at least 120-130 jobs. I had eleven interviews. Out of those, I have probably had a legitimate shot at two of the jobs for which I'd interviewed [the casino job, and this last accounting firm job that I am still holding out some hope for.]
My weight loss hasn't been that successful. The only positive is that I have not gained all of it back yet, and if I start now my weight loss program can continue with me still being about 25-30 pounds less than when I started in fall of 2009.
I didn't visit my family in 2010 at all, although my parents visited me over the summer. This is the longest period I've ever gone without coming home, I haven't been there in around sixteen months.
I am hoping 2011 is kinder to us, and that I can either find a job soon, or that we can be moved to a place where I can be back in the workforce by the end of the year.
