So sorry to hear this chikky.  When I was laid off several years ago, I took a few weeks to just relax, let it sink in, and take care of myself.  After that period (and I gave myself a firm deadline, so I wouldn't make a habit of it), I printed up my resume, took advantage of job counseling offered as part of my severance package, and started scouring the internet job boards.  I also began temping.  This supplemented my severance as well as kept my skills fresh:  and I ended up getting an excellent job through the assignment.

If you are getting a severance package, or can otherwise swing it, I would highly recommend just taking some time for you.  You deserve it!
