Eesh
Posted by Lanea on Monday, February 9th, 2009
My husband was laid off last week, so I’ve been a bit distracted. I’m working a bunch of extra hours and trying to make lots of wonderful little bags for my Etsy shop just to earn a bit extra. He’s already had a couple of interviews, so we’re not terribly worried. But still, with the state of the national economy, unemployment is a stressful thing to contemplate.

He’ll and you’ll be fine.
Mentally bagging sand and shoring things up around you.

megon 11 Feb 2009 at 12:52 am 5Oh dear. And it was such a cool-sounding job, too…well I know you’ll both be fine. Tell the cats to get off their lazy bottoms and go earn their kibble.
gayleon 11 Feb 2009 at 9:30 am 6This too shall pass. Being unemployed can be so devastating mentally.
Keeping fingers crossed for you both.
