Work stuff

So the rumors have been going around that they are going to be laying people off this week. I would like to think that wouldn't happen to me but I see that my job could easily be taken over by someone else. If that happens I will truly be devastated but I know if it does there is something better out there for me. I am just hoping we aren't financial ruin in the mean time. Today after lunch one the of the owners came past my desk talking on his phone and made the comment that they need to just go ahead and decide a few people to let go! So that pretty much confirmed that this was going to happen but no one has any clue who it will be.
It just makes me sick to think that we are getting to that point of letting people go. I have only been there a year and the company seems to be steadily going down hill. I am going to start looking for something else now because I figure at this point it could possibly only be a matter of time.
This couldn't have come at a worse time too. Our car troubles...and getting ready to leave for vacation(very stressful). It just seems like we are going though an awful lot of bad stuff all at once. I keep telling myself if we just get through this rough patch things will be great on the other end. I know that you have to take the good and the bad. Things can always change in a minute. Until then I will anxiously waiting to leave for Vegas who knows maybe we will have some good luck and win big! Shoot winning $20 bucks would excite me. lol
Next Friday is Joe's 23rd Birthday I am very excited that some of our good friends are going to be able to make it. The Noble family, Seth, Sarah, Brittany, my sister, & Lewis and Ashley have RSVP'd so far. I can't wait!!! It's so nice being able to get together and catch up with everyone.
One last thing I forgot to mention...Ashley and Lewis are expecting. She is due Feb. 2nd, shes a little over 9 weeks pregnant. I am really happy for them! I already warned her I love babies and will probably drive her crazy! :)

Kerri I am SO sorry you have to think about lay offs right now. It really is going around, eh? You're right though: you will find something better and things will work out. I just hate that so many people/families are having to prepare "just in case" right now.
