Rog, I saw that! Now, I don't know if that applies to Debbie and her dh, BUT, you definitely described MY dh. The problem is it's only a temporary fix...

Deb, I know you asked for comments from the guys, but I want to tell you that I feel your pain. My dh has never been in such a bad mood the whole 20 years I've known him as he has been in the last year. I'm blaming it on the economy and stress over the possibility of job loss, not to mention his 401K being in the toilet. It's no fun to be yelled at or ending up in a shouting match. It happens here, too. What I've been trying to do lately is when I see it heading in that direction, I TRY to remember why he is being so nasty, and either ignore it or give him some space. However, sometimes I'm not in the best mood either (shocking, I know!) and I snap right back. And, yes, sometimes it feels darned good to get it out of my system. We've raised the roof here a few times in the last year. Thankfully though, we manage to realize what buttheads we were (or mostly he was ) and things are good again. My dh is a hard worker and has never had anything given to him. He prides himself on the fact that he has made a good home for us and we have everything we need (and some of what we want, too ). I know he's feeling bad that he can't do more right now. I wish there was some way I could make him realize that everyone is in this same boat right now to some extent.

Here's one thing to consider for Rick - my dh's workshop has probably saved our marriage so far - time apart from each other isn't always a bad thing! Oh, yeah, and also that thing that Rog mentioned!!!

As inappropriate as it was there was a WHOLE LOTTA TRUTH in that, huh!!!

Hang with it Deb. I know it's rough, been there and done that- and will most certainly do it again. Denise and I have had a rough few months, things were so bad that we discovered our daughter was confiding her fears of divorce to her friend next door.

He will have to shift his focus, you can't do it for him. After 35 years, I know that his focus is normally on you, so I am confident that it will return. Sometimes there are so many things demanding our attention that we can't seem to decide where to look first, and that creates tension.

My turning point was seeing how broken up Denise was when we adopted the dog at Christmas, then had to return him after he nipped at DS. She was heartbroken because that dog loved her to no end. I realized that she wasn't getting that from me lately. In short, the dog was being better at loving her than I was. Wake up Rob, you've been looking the wrong way. Try not to be so stupid for a while, huh?

Our pastor started a new series this morning, about staying in balance. Money, work, daily life- all these things demand attention, and we can't do it all. There will be some good things to think about the next few weeks.

Hugs to both of you. There's a lot of people here cheering you on. And feel free to vent our way when you need to.

Rog...anything you have to say could only make me laugh...and I so need to laugh right now!! Make me laugh, will ya?

Well, I now officially hate 2009 as well as 2008. I was called into the office this morning and told my position is going to be eliminated come June. So, now I get to find another job. Boy, can it get any better?

 

[clkelley]

Oh Jen!!!! That stinks!!!! However, think of it as an opportunity to find something GREAT!! (I know, hard to say in this economy).

 

[2goofycampers]

That does stink, but I have faith in you, you will survive and thrive from this, especially since you have a little warning to look for something else.

 

[AuburnJen92]

Yeah, I have warning. I just have to get the sting out first.

Sending positive thoughts your way, Jen. Although it looks bad now, IMHO this is happening for a reason, and I feel you'll be better off for it. No worries.

Jen that stinks.

 

[BRDof3]

That sucks Jen. Add my hopes and prayers for a better outcome for you!

 

[Millermouseketeers]

I am sorry Jen. We will keep you in our prayers. I know you will find something else in the schools. The high schools need good people like you who are in tune with the teens. Good luck.

 

[des1954]

Jen-
From what you've told me, they've been treating you like dirt, anyways, so... GOOD RIDDANCE!!! I hope you find something immediately & then just up and leave long before June arrives. Broaden your scope of jobs,,,,like contract teaching for large corporations or something along that line. Verizon used contract instructors all the time. Maybe your business endeavors will start to pick up, too. Tell Chris to hang in there with you. Good things do happen to good people, and you are good people!

 

[Born 2 Fish]

Man, that blows. I thought school and education was spose to first, formost, and IMPORTANT in this country !?!?:
Send'n some prayers your way. I have faith you'll find something better.

And hey,,if I'm not mistaken , from what Deb said, she started gett'n that xtra pay in her check this week,,if yout gett'n it too, that could mean an xtra
$40. to hold you over in our economy to the new job,,
and thats what it's all about, the goverment gett'n us back on our feet.

 

[ftwildernessguy]

Sorry about the layoff, Jen. I've been laid off a couple times and it's never a nice experience. Looking back, however, the layoffs forced me to go into a different direction, and I ended up better off.

 

[Just Beachy]

Jen, I'm sending up prayers that a new and improved job is coming your way!! You deserve a great job after putting up with a lot of garbage from them! Sending lots of cyber hugs to you, too!
