I'm so sorry to hear about this turn of events. Losing your job after so many years is certainly difficult to take, but I do so hope things take a turn for the better very very soon. I know your gardne and craft work will help soothe your soul and I'm sure the support of your family and friends will be of great comfort.

So sorry to hear about your job...I know how much you enjoyed it, and LOVED the post you did showing us around the shop. I too am a firm believer of closed doors equal another door opening somewhere else. Hold tight to that faith. I too do the same thing at night when my worries keep me awake...pray, sing, or just start listing my blessings. I will be thinking and praying for you during this time. Life is uncertain, but there is certainty in who holds the future.<br /><br />Oh...just thought of another thought that I heard a couple weeks ago that might encourage you. "We don't need to worry about tomorrow, because God is already there." Beautiful thought.Darciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13433894747049535179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-11742951611816874252011-07-14T15:31:56.882-04:002011-07-14T15:31:56.882-04:00Have just been catching up.

Go check out some health food /natural stores and grocery stores, and bring them some samples of your breads or cookies--whatever. Let your baked itmes speak ( or taste ), for themselves. Then start selling little packages of home baked good through them. Heat and humidity is killer, 110 heat index here today.

I know times are bad, but still, for every person I know that loses their job (there's been quite a few!), it's still shocking to me. I hope you will find a wonderful new job that you love. Your crocheted pieces are lovely. I could see them framed against some beautiful matting.

I agree, its just miserable and you can't stay out very long and the weeds are just growing up a storm. I feel your "angst" about your job. Mine, I believe, is just playing out also. A sign of the times, they say. Hopefully in the interval something will happen for the good. You just never know. I'll be thinking about you along the way. Your crochet pieces are just gorgeous. You are so talented!!

It took me a long time, and a even longer time to see that my job was not who I was, it was just a small part of who I was. I told myself everyday that God see's the bigger picture even when I don't. Sometimes things would get really bad, kand I had a hard time believing that....but things always worked out and things eventually did get better. In 3 years, I lost my job, had a series of low paying jobs that were demeaning to me, had to file bankruptcy and was in a BAD marriage. 3 years later, I own my own business, got rid of the worthless husband and 95% of the bankruptcy. I have been to the bottom, and it makes you better person and you appreciate things much more. If God leads you to it, he will lead you through it.Dirt Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02738312834526690841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-7298400632978158512011-07-12T17:01:47.101-04:002011-07-12T17:01:47.101-04:00I'm sorry about your losing your job.
