So, the picture is kind of scary, but you get the idea. We had a nice anniversary Monday and thanks to everyone for the shout outs. I'll be posting some of the pictures later, but wanted to write a quick post to, well, vent. Not complain, just vent. When I got back to work on Wednesday I found out that the company I work for is being sold. It's a family run business and the president has decided to retire. Instead of letting the kids run the company like they have been for the past little while, she just wants completely out. I don't blame her....less stress and a nice chunk of change. What does this mean for me? Most likely I'll lose my job, ugh! The same kind of situation happened at the last company I worked for and it's pretty scary. That was over three years ago, now it's downright terrifying. As far as I know there haven't been any serious offers on the table yet for the company. They think the time span could be anywhere from 6 months to a year. At least I have a heads up this time, although, the job market isn't really too promising right now. I've been looking the past couple of days and there's pretty much nada. Lucky for us Alan carries the insurance, so at least that is taken care of. We also have some time to work things out, which is actually pretty helpful. So, to all those of you out there who are worried or stressed about their jobs, I hear ya! But, (and this needs to be my daily motto) things happen for a reason. I traded up from my last job, so who knows where this will lead? Just need to keep thinkin' the positive vibes! How does that song go..."every new beginning starts with some other beginnings end." Side note...I'm totally diggin' the signature at the bottom! I know, I'm weird!

Bummer! I know you love your job! So maybe you'll get pregnant and have the baby just when the company is sold (or right before so you can take maternity leave) and then you can be a stay at home mom!
Well I am sorry to hear about the job and I know that things like this bring on so much stress, but like you already said everything happens for a reason and in the lords time. Don't forget to set aside a little extra money though..just in case.
Crap!!! Let me know if I can help..IHC website may be a place to look.. they don't really pay that well..BUT... I love the signature too!!! Good luck, call me!!
Hey Marisa! That's too bad about your job. But I totally agree that things happen for a reason :) It just might take longer than you like to see the reason why.
Feel free to stalk my blog anytime you want! Oh and thank you so much for the well wishes. I guess I should have made sure Dustin was telling people ;) Hopefully I see you soon and good luck job hunting!
Turn around bright eyes! Every now and then I get a little bit terrified that the best of all the years have gone byyyy...Turn around, bright eyes! ha ha ha! I so seriously think about you every time I hear that song and it came to mind when I read your blog...:) Nothing I can say, a total eclipse of the heart...What does this have to do with the job hunt? Not much but I do miss you! Good luck!!!!
