Trying to move on

July 22nd, 2014 at 03:31 pm

from my $1,400 blunder. It is hard, especially since the blahs have a tight hold of my ankles and aren't really letting me get above water for air.

The promising lead on a job for my husband has officially been extinguished. Time to move on. Engage the brain, use the plan, etc.

I am my own biggest hurdle to success and contentment.

As one friend says (and I have been known to quote), "Turn that frown upside down." Easier said than done. But the reality is we did have a wonderful trip and I was able to lay on Laguna Beach for several afternoons (in a two-piece! been eons since I could do that :P )

Here is a picture that I took:




End note: DH just had his "off-board" meeting, I imagine that is just a nice way of saying "kicked out/laid off/etc". Severance is taxed at 25% and we pay ADP directly for COBRA. Lots of details to deal with.

    That's almost exactly what my son's ATV accident cost me. Ah, vacations. Beautiful picture! Smile

    Gorgeous! The more information you have about the layoff and how it changes the finances the better. When can he apply for unemployment?

    Don't feel bad about the money - its spent - account for it and prepare for the future. And cherish the memories.
