I have not been unemployed for more than 10 days at a time, so it wasnt so bad for me. Although I get a sick feeling after quitting a job and joining a new one. Just on those two days.. I dunno why though

learn to can what you grow so you will always have food available and save money.
I read about a family who built a whole greenhouse over their home and keep warm most of the year surrounded by greenery.

This is in Stockholm, Sweden. It gets cold there!
,,,,gorilla glass. May be polycarbonate.
polycarbonate sheet test at 3:40, before that is polystyrene, then acrylic.
They call them sleeve houses. A co-worker and her husband built one and they had to install a furnace but didn't expect to use it. We left before it was finished.
looked around for "sleeve house" and only found one so far, and wasn't that one. Seems it normally refers to something similar to "sliders" on RV's.
I just worked with her and she talked about it. This was back in the early 80s
Join different forums related to my job and try to learn new and interesting things.
If you're out of work and spend most of your idle time in cyberspace, I'd suggest getting out and taking a long walk in the countryside or even a local park where you'd be surrounded by nature and not humans. Listen to sounds, smell the air and enjoy a wonderful gift that few seem to appreciate anymore. You can certainly learn new and interesting things that way if such activity is not already been part of your life.
Your profile suggests you may spend a lot of time on the web and are something of a blogger. In that capacity, you only get to know the virtual world. Get outside and explore the real world. It might even provide you new material to write about that you've never known. I find that the fulfillment in learning comes when we can share our discoveries with others. Live it, learn from it and share it.
If you go alone for a leisurely walk in a park you can put your life in jeopardy. Hmm, DC too it seems, someone should have informed Vince Foster of that.
Here's one "nice" park.
