Well, when it rains it pours. Normally I try not to complain... but Justin called me from his job the other day. He was stuck at work holding a box of things that use to be on his desk. Apparently the company is in a bad financial bind and they fired almost everyone who had been there less than a year.
Next week the project I was hired onto will be ending. All good research projects come to an end. So as of Tuesday, both Justin and I will be unemployed.
This is right after we finally got moved into our new place. We have a couch, a new TV, an awesome bed, etc. Of course, most of these things were gifts, but still. I feel like we have everything perfect on the outside but we are fighting for our lives on the inside.
After we both got home that day, we just held each other and cried. That day was not the first time we've done that and it probably won't be the last. I am trying my best to hold my head up and keep going. We will make it somehow. He has filed for unemployment and we both have several job applications out. So keep us in your prayers as we go through this difficult time.
The good news is that, with all of this stress, I've lost about 10 pounds! I've been needing to lose weight ha-ha! Oh well. God has a plan and I just need to do my best and He will take care of everything else.
