What a doozy of a day
It started off this morning with W’s admittance to the ER due to his left leg failing to function properly. It seems he may have a pinched nerve…he’s been aggravating an old injury over and over again the last few weeks. I really wish he’d cut that out. As it is, he’s not doing much of anything right now – other than being doped to the gills on pain killers, muscle relaxers and steroids.
Then, I get back to work in time for a meeting that was no joy. Our groups is now down three people. Two from layoffs and one from a voluntary resignation. The old fear that keeps coming back up…that I’m going to be hit with a layoff yet again.
And with W unable to work…the fear is even higher. I am so stressed it’s surreal. With the economy the way it is, who knows what tomorrow will bring…and I don’t do well with instability in my financial life. Ok, ok – with any aspect of my life.

Hey, I am so sorry to hear the news, and sure hope Wayne ends up OK. Also I am with you on the layoffs. They are hitting hard and fast among my friends (and may hit me any second). I am SO glad you got at least a little reprieve, so you can try to be looking for something else.
I am thinking of you!!!

Ouch! That’s painful! Hang in there. You have mad skillz and they’d be crazy to not keep you!

I feel for you. The last few months have been very unstable. I try to tell myself “this to shall pass”.
Hang in there!! It helps to know your not the only one trying not to drown in this crazy scary time.
