I'm just checking in to give an update.
The good news, my health scare turned out to be due to nursing. After I finish nursing, they recommend that I get tested again to make sure that was in fact the cause of it. Phew...Really that is GREAT news and I am really thankful. Thinking about the alternative is scary.
The bad news, the work front wasn't so lucky. I got the results of the vote, and they will be selling our business. I most likely won't have a job in 30 days and that is upsetting. After 8 years of blood, sweat, and tears I have no choice but to move on. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I find something quick or that they keep me on until I do. I haven't been without a job since I graduated from highschool 20 years ago. This just isn't a good time, but I guess, when really is?!
In preparation, I have put the family on a no-frills budget. We are accounting for every dollar we spend. We are just a week in, and we already spent way more than we intended. It is unbelievable the cost of items when you are really paying attention. Heat, gas, and food are expenses that just keep creeping up. Much more than the rate of pay increases. And ones that you really can't live without. I wonder how most people survive even with a two household income.
Babygirl and littlesoldier boy are doing well. They are still growing like weeds and still make me proud every day. I am so lucky to have been given the privilege of being their mother. I thank God every day.
I'm trying to stay positive and hoping everything will work out...and if you truly knew me, and my worrisome nature, you would understand how difficult that really is for me...until next time - Love, Peace, and Happiness
