prayers please

[Guest guest]

DH just got word yesterday that his job is being eliminated. The company is losing their last client for his department and they're closing up the department. The economy is improving but we're still close to Detroit which means it isn't great so I'm nervous (okay, scared is a better word but trying to trust God who has brought us through so many things before). He is being paid through May 31 (his last paycheck) but we don't know if our health insurance will be paid for June yet. Since there's very little work to do (and hasn't been much for a while, we should have seen this coming but ignored it) his boss told him he can come in as long as he wants to or clear out and do what he wants (like look for a new job) but he'll still be paid for the month. I'm not sure what his plan is but he didn't clear out his stuff Friday so he'll probably at least go in for a while on Monday. We've been through this before, most recently at the end of 2008 and I hate the anxiety most of all. He already started making contacts and applying for jobs as of yesterday afternoon (after his boss told him to go home, he was hanging around trying to work after being told and his boss felt bad and told him he meant for him to take the rest of the day off for sure) so that was good. I started making contacts at WW telling everyone I can sub for them and telling my At Work coordinator that I can take on more classes. I even emailed my assistant mangager and asked about full or part-time positions at headquarters. We'll see what happens. Anyway, any kind thoughts and prayers sent our way will be much appreciated. We haven't told the kids yet, but probably will tonight. I know it will eventually work out but this stinks being in the middle of it first.

I'm on my way to a Mother-Daughter Banquet at church, I hate these things but I'm going.
