Curveball

I've hesitated writing a new blog for a few days, but I suppose I should share my news now that it is becoming more public knowledge. On Friday I lost my job. I, along with 30 others, were laid off. With the state of the economy right now, I can't say that I am really surprised. I think we all our fearful of this happening. I tried to regroup this weekend. Monday, I was hit with another piece of bad news. John lost his job. He, along with many others, was laid off. I still cannot believe it. It seems so surreal. Today is John's birthday. I made a nice dinner and we tried to have a low-key, enjoyable evening.

I appreciate all the support thus far and once again, life shows me how wonderful my family and friends are.

If the saying, "that which does not kill us, makes us stronger" is correct, you must be Ms Hercules. Let me know what I can do to help you guys. It is truly a double-whammy and I am so so sorry.

Hey Whit-sorry to hear that. What sort of jobs would you and John be looking for? Jerred has gotten into recruiting (head-hunter) and he can look at what's out there. My email is marcicopeland@hotmail.com.
