I've been down today...went to the park with my roommate and the 2 yr old...sometimes you just need to swing, and slide, and climb some stuff. We walked down by the lake and just sat and looked and enjoyed the breeze...I feel better! :)

December 2 POTD (Picture of the Day)

December....

...is not off to a great start.
I was laid off yesterday after 5 plus years of devoted service to this company...no severance, no nothing, just, "we can't afford our salaried employees, so we've eliminated your position". I just got a promotion 2 months ago, so this was quite a shock! I know God has a plan and that I'll be ok, but....it sure is a lot to process! My housemate and former work partner was told the same thing...so at least we're in it together!
I appreciate your thoughts and prayers.

In other news, I am trying to do a photo of the day each day in December.
Here's Dec 1...
this is how we coped at my house, we ordered Chinese, drank wine, and played Wii. :)

You can see the whole month HERE.
