Since last we left our diligent heroine she was counting down the days to vacation. I believe the last countdown number was 6 days. Well, here we are, the eve before the great trip. At this time tomorrow I will be flying the friendly skies. Meanwhile our heroine has been blind-sided by a life-changing event. Actually, it is more like the Hero a/k/a Husband has been blind-sided by a life-changing event. On Friday major happenings occured at his workplace and his job has been threatened. It is to the point we have actually had to seek out legal advice and are now in a battle of wills with his workplace. The gauntlet has been thrown down. Long story short, Husband will most likely be returning from vacation to the termination of his employment. And with any luck, a nice separation package *fingers crossed*. Of course this could not occur at a worse time as you all know I will be laid off at the end of December. It is times like these when the definition of marriage really hits home, the symbiotic nature of marriage truly becomes clear. We are in this together, no matter what, for the good, the bad and the ugly. Life really comes at you fast, but I guess it's the twists and turns and how you handle them that build your character. This episode shall continue upon our return!
I have laid down a strict mandate, however. Absolutely no talking, thinking or even sub-consciously dreaming about work. No thoughts or talking about anything but what drink we shall have, what phoofy food do we want, what adventure we seek out and sex. Lots of sex. Is that tmi? Exsqueeze me if it is, but this is our anniversary trip people. What do you expect?!
So, please do think of me these next 8 days, lying beachside, sun beating down on me, cool water running through my hair, aaaaaahhhhhhhh, vacation.
Peace, love, bon voyage and all that other bullshit,
Liss
