Well, I've got bad news and bad news.
The bad news is I lost my job. The really bad news is that my apartment went with it. So I'm moving in with family.

I'll be back on DU tuesday once the cabe installer comes out.

Thanks for all the love everybody. I really really do appreciate it.

Sorry flvegan was so vauge about what was up with me. He just wants to protect my privacy, which is sweet of him.

Thanks again everybody. I'll be back soon, I miss you all. :)

1. That sucks, LeftyMom, losing both your job and your apartment.
I am glad, though, that your family is nearby and you and LeftyKid have a place to land until you can find another job.

:hug:

25. I'll always stand up for you
regardless of the shit responses I get. I had hoped I was clear in my original post...apparently not. This was your biz, not mine. Respect is oftentimes a two way street that some folks should fucking Mapquest before venturing out upon it.

Love ya.

27. Bummer
You may have me on ignore, but I do have sympathy for your situation. Hope it turns out for the better - and hey, the kid will probably dig the extra attention - we are tribal after all.

It helped the ancestors raise kids and hunt. ;-)

34. I'm so sorry to hear about the job and apartment.
But it sounds like you've got a safety net that can see you and your son through until things improve for you on the job front.

I hope your family won't drive you bonkers! I know I could live with maybe one or two of my sisters (I have 5) in a pinch, the others would be hard to handle.

Hope your move out/move in goes well.

42. Maybe it's an opportunity for you.
I'm sorry to hear your bad and more bad news. I wish you well.

But, now you can do something you might not have done before. No more risk of losing your job and apartment. The worst has occurred. When things go bad for me (believe me they have, big time) I try to stay positive (not always easy to do) and look for the silver lining. It's an opportunity to try something new, something different.

All the very best for you.
