I'll be home for the holidays....

Sad to say, but last Friday saw me enter the ranks of the newly jobless. After 13 months of working to fit in at CMA, time and patience finally ran out. I tried to make it work, but it was just too much.

As Han Solo would say...."Here's where the fun begins."

This past week has been a real emotional rollercoaster of sorts. I've been doing my best to stay busy (holidays take care of that) and try not to dwell on the monster decisions that are looming. There is a good chance that this blog may be forced into retirement in the coming months, as we make adjustments and begin financial juggling. Thankfully, my family is very supportive and doing everything to keep us grounded given the circumstances. Greer will probably stay in daycare for a bit until we get a better idea how things will shake down, but eventually he'll be home with me. I'm hoping to work from home on a few side projects, but it's been a while - and back then I didn't have the same familial obligations that are on the horizon. I can honestly say, that this is the biggest challenge I've ever faced. I just hope I have the strength and perserverance (with God's help) to keep things together.

Thanks to everyone who has offered support and good wishes.

In other news...

The twins are doing well! Alex had a very positive visit to the M.D. this morning - and everything looks 5 by 5. Hopefully, she will have the energy to continue working as we get further along. As it stands now, she needs the rest whenever she can get it....thankfully, my current status allows me to cover many of the housekeeping issues and support her needs. We're going to have to get pretty creative in the coming days....
