Hello Karen,

Sorry to hear the unfortunate news, hopefully something better comes along. What university is it?

Hi Karen,

How frustrating for you and your family to have your husband lose his job, not because of the economy, but as a result of stupid workplace politics. Thank goodness you have a year to look around and make good decisions. Let's hope something good comes along and turns a misfortune into an exciting opportunity.

The best of luck with it. Sending you hugs and good energy.

Karen,
The things you have learned, will be useful in the days ahead. As you hold hands wiht your hubby, your love will grow and the knowledge of having done well; is a treasure you can share together.

Oh Karen, how horrible. I'm so sorry to hear this news. Please know that I am thinking of all of you and fervently hope that in the closing of this door, a new door will open that will lead to even more exciting opportunities for David, you and your family. I wish I could be there right now to hold you all as you cry and lend you strength.

Love and hugs,


Kat

We haven't moved quite as much as you, Trudi, though we've lived in eight states in 25 years of marriage. It's not the move itself which is so bad; that's just a few messy weeks to deal with. What I hate is the aftermath. I'm sick to death of being the new kid in town and never want to go through it again.

Thanks lain. I've been gentle with myself the last few days, not pushing myself to do more than I have to.

Thanks Cha Cha. I know a lot of people are struggling right now. I'll quit being quite so angry and sad soon and get on with things.
