Hi ladies,

It's been a while so I thought I'd drop in and say hello. Things are going pretty well for me and there are lots of things changing. I will post a proper update next week. But just wanted to see how my favorite ladies are doing.

Have I missed any fun drama on here? Any religious zealots with "bonus" kids? Any newbies who told us to eff off when we didn't agree with them? What's the latest?

My career has been in the financial services field. There is a possibility that I would have to move to take advantage of a new and better job opportunity. We would likely have to move to NY/NJ area so I could work in the city. (We are in FL now). FDH used to live/work there and there are lots of opportunities still there in his industry (far more than here). We do NOT want to move. We love it here. But it may become inevitable at some point in the next six months.

I was right. But they caught me off guard by telling me that my two employees are gone too. The whole team is wiped out and no one knows the details of what we do so the company just screwed itself. Oh well, that's their problem. I have been flooded with calls and emails today. People are in utter shock that this happened. It was very nice to hear from people who think this is the stupidest decision they've ever heard. I feel sorry for the people who will be stuck with the work and who are completely unprepared for it in any way. My system is shut down now!

Friday night, FDH and I were having dinner. Somehow the topic of my increased dosage of antidepressants came up in discussion. I was basically telling him the new dosage was settling in fine. I could tell he was about to say something and stopped. So I pushed him and told him I knew he had something on his mind he wasn't saying. He finally relented and said:

FDH I am just wondering if this is something you'll be on for the rest of your life

Me Hmmm why are you worried about that?
