It is never fun..for anyone involved. I'll never forget the last round I endured - it was on New Years Eve...how crappy to send someone home on such a holiday with bad news. Ugh. Anyhow, having lived through it with so many friends - it is never easy.KThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14675117636370455435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-88907275901073511172013-05-06T18:31:47.029-04:002013-05-06T18:31:47.029-04:00It is a hard adjustment.

It will give him time to think, and me time to think, and both of us time to plan together. <br /><br />I'm already self-employed, and my husband will probably do that too (consulting) once he is ready to seek work. Because the prospect of looking for work in his 50s is horrible. <br /><br />Hugs.Malihttp://nokiddinginnz.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3178366214524455884.post-12790368794754601222013-05-06T15:23:46.574-04:002013-05-06T15:23:46.574-04:00Wishing you all the best!

That must be a devastating blow. My own father lost his job four years ago and never managed to get another one. It has been a massive blow to my parents, who are finally preparing to sell their dream home, in which they hoped to retire, next summer after many years of denial. It's absolutely been a life altering devastation for them, although they two have suffered worse (they lost my sister after three months in NICU and three sons, all stillborn). Anyway, I've watched how hard it is to lose one's job so close to retirement. I'm so sorry your family is going through it too.Esperanzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12375150088333673843noreply@blogger.com
