Le Sigh.

Well... as kadollan said: we got fired.  They eliminated several positions at that place we work, and ours were some of them.  

Remarkably (and any of you who know me much and/or awhile and know how, well, let's say "high strung" I can be) I wasn't particularly upset by this.  I didn't fall apart, break down, or cry.  I got a fairly decent severance package that gives me a little bit of room to work out what I'm going to do (and, especially if husband's family is willing to help out with somethings, which is entirely possible I hope if necessary) next.

Hand of the Gods, says I.

wintermoon3 (who's position still exists for the present) said that this was weird, because she's the one who's been feeling like she's not been where she's supposed to be for awhile now.  I pointed out that she'd already gotten the memo, and didn't need the kick in the proverbial pants.  I had a copy of the memo, I just wasn't trusting it enough and Bek... well... she really hadn't even gotten a carbon copy.  So yes, I see the hand of the Divine in all of this. 

So now it's on to better things.  Brian says that I seem happier and more relaxed already.

Yeah.  :)

Despite the fact, she has been contemplating freedom, I think both wintermoon3 and poetheather should wait for the boot. A serverance package helps and so does unemployment. If they just quit, they won't get either one.
Good luck on your new adventure. I congratulate you on all the fabulousness of this opportunity, including witnessing yourself taking the news well.

That totally sucks. Severance package is nice, but looking for a job sucks. {hugs}

Luckily... I don't think I'll be needing to do that. Some friends and I are taking this opportunity to do our own thing instead. :)

Thank you for the thoughts and hugs! ::hugs::
