So sorry to hear about your husband's job, I do hope it leads to something better (more stimulating, closer to home, more interesting, better paid - just better somehow!) And gosh, yes, I can see that you must have very mixed feelings about your daughter moving out. I hope all goes smoothly and you see plenty of her still xxhumelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06337055138734278353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832438155841430452.post-81170690132538623762011-04-01T14:30:54.794+01:002011-04-01T14:30:54.794+01:00Oh, Deb, I'm so sorry to hear this.

I know that there will be an adjustment time, but I also know that change can be very good even though it disguises itself as a pain-in-the-well...you know. Keep your chin up and all will be good...eventually. And until then, you have us to lean on! xoDeb @ PaperTurtlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00957816023851249171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832438155841430452.post-32971279913232921722011-03-30T06:21:34.769+01:002011-03-30T06:21:34.769+01:00Hi Deb

Interesting about your daughter - does that mean a wedding is in the works? It's always seemed to me that Europeans were less likely to marry, while here most contemplate marriage along with moving out and moving in . . .<br />rindaMaria Ontiveroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00120998825608732473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832438155841430452.post-54301591999645280682011-03-28T20:05:26.980+01:002011-03-28T20:05:26.980+01:00Deb,those are definitely some major life changes. ...Deb,those are definitely some major life changes.

Glad hubby is taking the time to decide what he really wants to do! <br /><br />Here DH's job is on the line and we are kind of in a holding pattern to see what will happen. Only if he is let go, there will be no severance, no niceties, and he'll have no choice but to seek new employment immediately.<br /><br />Keep us posted on how it all works out!Cherihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15398170245040387614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832438155841430452.post-32011163238029854002011-03-28T15:07:27.490+01:002011-03-28T15:07:27.490+01:00I'm sorry to hear about your husband,Deb....bu...I'm sorry to hear about your husband,Deb....but completely agree that he needs time to really think about what he wants to do.<br />As for your daughter....it will be strange.....but just think.....you will now have a craft room!!!!!scrappyjackyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11761068895383717904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5832438155841430452.post-11362036599742082832011-03-28T14:56:13.764+01:002011-03-28T14:56:13.764+01:00Oh no Deb, Sorry about your husband's job.

Although it's hard to see how things will go at the moment I'm sure that all will be well in the end. Its a great idea for your hubby to take some time out and with it being spring moving into summer that'll help too. I left work after 28 years, but by my own choice, and its the best thing I ever did. There's a whole world of possibilities out there xWendyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05270967283269892653noreply@blogger.com
