What's Worse Than Losing Your Job?


Answer: when you and your hubby both lose it at the same time.

Wow. I mean wow. Today we found out our primary sponsor is no longer going to be our sponsor. At close to half a mil per year, this is a big fucking deal. So, our team will no longer be a team at the end of our season.

Wow. Talk about mixed feelings.

By mid November I will be unemployed. So will the Booby. Talk about the multiple eggs in just one basket case! What am I going to do? It's a rhetorical question, I'm not really looking for answers, just a job.

And the "you should pick me" approach in a job application cover letter has not sprung any positive results, so back to the ol' drawin' board!

...to be continued!

p.s. after writing this and having it sit un-published, I found out Booby's best friend passed away after a long battle against cancer. I haven't told him yet. I don't know how I'm going to do that.

  1. OMG, Nikki, I know you were anticipating this but it still sucks. Then to have Booby's friend pass away? I don't care how long the fight, it's always tragic.
    Awww... I'm so upset for you both.
    HUGE HUGS, lots of kisses, and a few kleenex

  3. Life has a way of throwing crap at us at various points in our journey. But there's always extended times where there's no crap throwing - best to think about those and look forward to the next one. Best of luck, and keep us posted!
