[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 605932, member: 13882"] Sig, I'm so sorry for husband and for you, and the ripple effects on your whole family. No doubt you're beyond stressed right now, and you may think you can't cope, but you can, and you will. You're a tough girl, of strong stock, and you've done this before. Thank God you just got a sizeable raise and you're no fool, you do a great job and will continue. It does seem cruel that just as you were celebrating and exhaling from your financial issues, you're going down that road again. Remember, husband may soon get rehired, he may get another job, and you're still working. It's for better or worse, richer or poorer, and I know you and husband will console one another once the dust settles a little bit. The earth just seems to spin off its axis when a spouse loses a coveted job, for no good reason, and you haven't regained your gravity just yet. You will, honey. Economizing and cutting back, even drastically are not fun, and should not be romanticized, but you've been there before, and you made it. I have faith that you will both land on your feet again by virtue of your grit, determination, courage and mutual support. Don't forget, you're the mother of a difficult child - you've seen it all and you're not to be trifled with!! [/QUOTE]
