Today

They announced Friday morning via email that by the end of the day 200 of my co-workers would no longer be employed. The rest of the day everyone was on edge, wondering who would be the next to be tapped on the shoulder and called to the conference room. It was the worst game of duck, duck, goose I have ever seen. The day was spent with many of us in tears, saying good by to people we have worked with, many our friends. Some will be ok, some, well who knows. I don’t know what some will do. The ones who just lost parents, single parents, taking care of families. What will they do? I don’t know. I will miss them every day. Mostly Miss T and Dr McN.

I got my truck back it smells like laundry left in the wash too long. But, it has windows again. Something good.

Cole peed when he got up from his nap, I chewed him out a little for it and said “I should put him on time out for it” He said “ That’s crazy talk, mom!” I am still laughing. Another thing good.

We are going to try to save the house. I don’t know how. But we are trying. Jason has work for the next 45 days now anyway. And they are not going to announce another round of lay offs at my work for at least 3 months. But we are already behind. Food, or house payment? Pick one kiddo.
