Sending you both love and support, as well. dawn: I completely agree and feel the same way about opps for growth. I’m a deeply optimistic person, and I’m finding myself drawing strength from that right now!

My husband’s company is is turmoil after an expected merger was scuttled over the xmas holiday. 10% across the board staff cuts are expected by mid-month, so we sit and wait.

All things pass eventually but it is uncomfortable in the meantime.

Best of luck to your hubby.

My husband is underemployed (again) after this last lay-off but all the angst/budget woes have been opportunities for growth. Not that I wouldn’t give up the growth for solvency but I’m working on a positive outlook for 2009. (And I know I need to get that review to you — the holidays had me swamped and I’m just coming out from under them!!)
