I haven't fallen off the face of the earth !

I promise I haven't fallen off the face of the Earth.

Things have been busy.. and then they came to a screeching halt this week.

So maybe-- well I will have more time to write, even if just briefly.

So after 19 1/2 years with my employer, I was let go in their recent downsizing effort.

It is a total shocker to me ! 

We will be okay.. Things like no insurance, stressed me out all weekend.

But in the end somehow God will provide.

It will be nice to be able to stay home at least for the interim with Lizard.

Tomorrow I'm supposed to get on my A-game and resurrect my resume.. and talk to the outplacement service, beef up my L-in profile.



So after 19 years, and knowing many people, and many people seeing me in tears at 5pm packing my desk. ( I only found out at 10 minutes to 5 that I had no job ) .. I am truly seeing who the real friends are.   HR didn't allow anyone to talk with me while I was packing up..   only 2 people checked on me that night and the same checked on me in the morning. 

There were a lot of tears that night and the next day and the next.


19 years isn't a  lot, but it's a lot.   


Bear with me as I figure out what i'll be doing going forward.. so maybe lots of more ramblings soon.

Cheers to more writing soon !
