My Husband Was Laid Off.....

Ok...

so we thought it might happen...were even possibly happy as his boss was a world class psycho (mom avert your eyes) bitch. Of couse we never even saw it coming..we prayed it wouldn't happen
but in the end..

Hubby was laid off yesterday afternoon. Bastards waiting until after lunch to do it. Which sucks even more. If you think, but pray, its not coming, at least get it over with in the morning. Dont make a person work half a freaking day!!!!

Hubby says we will be ok. We had previous, like yesterday morning, signed up for visa's laid off protection plan. We dont have to make a payment for 2 years. Phew. Its our only credit card.
We dont have a lot of bills...but damnnnnnnnnn

So..I am, now that I am over the initial shock, kinda glad. I know..How the heck can I say that.

I can say that because we WILL NOT LOSE OUR HOUSE. Hubby got good severance and we will watch what we do. (damn...maybe I shouldn't have bought the dyson)
We will still live our lives. but a litte more carefully

Hubby is taking the weekend off. No resume building this weekend. Phew..Cause I suck as sharing my computer!!!!!

See...Hubby has had this job for a year now. He has worked 80 hours a week since he started. Yes, I know...he was grateful for a job. We used to say that all the time. We would bitch about it, then sigh and say, at least he has a job. Grin!!
But, he worked all night, every night, he worked sat and sunday. It was horrible. Yes, at least he had a job...sigh

We told Children last night. C1 cheered! What does that tell you. We all missed him. He was missing us. He had traded in his family for his career. And that is no living! Granted he could had stayed at Job 1, the one he had had since college, but we were going broke cause they were such skinflints!!! I would have had to get *shudder* job by now. :)

So..Now he is home. HUBBY...STAY OUT OF MY LAUNDRY ROOM. I wonder if I can give him a honey do list :)

I know I have to back off a little. Hubbies in general need to feel needed. I know that, I am so used to doing everything that its going to be really really hard to back off. As long as he stays out of my laundry room...I think I'll be ok.

He cut the grass last night. Hasn't dont that in a while :)

(mom dont read)

He says last night to me, so...the kids go to school at day right....and C3 goes to preschool in the afternoon....(sly grin) so like, we can get busy in the afternoons eh??

Honestly, I was not totally appaled by the idea. I haven't really seen him much in mind, body or soul, for the past year......

I think I'm gonna like him home...for a little bit,... Check my next blog to see how he's doing...If i've strangled him yet, or if he's now living on his boat :)


at least none of us are sick
at least we can still afford our house
at least we can afford food
at least we dont have the swine flu
at least he still has a jo..... sigh
