Just when you think you have it all together..
Life is pulled from under me..

My husband lost his job of 12 years..
( not anything to do with his fault)
we lost all our benefits.. Thank god i still work.. and he is going to collect
and at the same time. for 3 months.. he hurt his back bad so he was going to work on crutches. So he had a hurt back and a sprained ankle..
and then they lay him off..

I been trying everything in my power to hold it together..
Especially I been trying to put all my time into back on the wagon and losing
weight. I always feel better when i look better..

we moved to where we are leaving about 3 years ago. I miss my family so much..
I have not made many friends out here..
Im sorry im rambling on..

I keep my faith in god.. thats all i have and keep going..
tonight im just down, im sure tomorrow will be a better day..

If anyone out there ever wants to talk.. feel free to pm me!

Aw Friday! That' really sucks.

My mom is being laid off too. 25 years of work and commitment down the drain. They did it in a really bad way too (You should be grateful because we were going to do it before christmas- but we decided to hold off.) It really sucks too because none of it was her doing. Just bad business decisions and the wife of the boss can't keep her spending in check ($600 shoes anyone?)

Actually it was supposed to take effect tuesday, but they haven't done it because they've been busy. (They work in Adoptions.. but have had a baby born.) Anyway, my mom is the only one who can do all the paperwork.

It's really really stressful.

Sending hugs your way!
