Afraid

Saturday, January 24, 2009 Posted In Edit This 10 Comments »



DH was laid off his job yesterday afternoon. He now joins the masses that have been laid off thanks to the failing economy. Unfortunately, his job depends largely on state budgets and with all the cutbacks, his company had slowed as well. Nor was it aided any by greedy souls in charge of the company. But that's all I'll say about that for now.

So right now we are both very afraid of what will happen. I know it is too early to entirely freak the fuck out, but it is sort of impossible not to do so. We are facing the stark realization that finding a job at the same pay is going to be an impossible task.

Simply put, I don't know what we are going to do. And I'm afraid.

I am sorry this has happened Tara. My husband and I have been there (only he lost his job 10 days after we were married!) and it was a hard road. It took us to better places, but it was still really hard.

You are in my thoughts and prayers. And I am here for you any time.

That is horrible.
Hang in there. The same thing happened to my DH last year and it was the best thing ever. Because of that we made to the decision to buy our business.
Good luck.
