What are you doing at this moment?

Going out for valentine's breakfast with Mrs Rune.

Should be nice, but there's always a nagging feeling in the back of my mind...

Counting down the seconds until Caitlin Clark breaks Pete Maravich's record and becomes the all-time leader in scoring in college basketball.
 
Trying to deal with my anxiety.

Got laid off yesterday. Supposedly for only a few weeks as right now we're a little slow on my side of the manufacturing business. In the 14 years I've worked where I work, it's happened twice before and only for a few weeks. But my anxiety is still through the roof. Is this gonna be the time business doesn't pick up? Am I going to have to look for a new job? How do I look in my the eyes of my wife? My son?

I'm trying to treat this as a little vacation. Two or three weeks of time to work on my models. To make some delicious meals for my wife to come home to. Maybe get to spend March break with my son if it goes that long.

But still..... in the back of my mind, I'm freaking out just that little bit. Ugh.

I'm really sorry that happened to you. Fingers crossed it's just a short aberration like the last two times, but I totally get the anxiety around the uncertainty. Best wishes to you.

oh that sucks, I hope the same thing that happened to me doesn't happen to you. Last year I was laid off for almost 6 months, because of that and problems to get my unemployment money I lost all my savings. So I'm crossing my fingers for you.

Uncertainity is always the worst aspect of these kinds of things and I'm sure no-one is going to be judging you for something that's outside your control.

Your plans for dealing with the situation sound really positive. I do hope you get to enjoy the time off - and that the situation is resolved quickly.

My best wishes to you at this difficult time.
