This recession is scary. It is incredibly scary. I didn't realize how scary until it hit close to home.
There's a real possibility (how remote a possibility is a matter of pure speculation, which I refuse to engage in) that I may lose my job this year. Maybe this month. Bryan and I have been talking about what we'd do if that happened, and talking about whether we think it will happen, all weekend, and my head hurts. I can't think about it anymore. But I also can't stop.
I don't know what we'd do. Bryan and I would both immediately be looking for any job, obviously. We'd have to get a forbearance on our student loans. If we didn't find jobs, we can't even think about what we'd do. Probably it would involve moving back to Oklahoma. We don't want to do that - we love it here - but we would if we had to. It would take really having to. We've always said God would have to put it in letters on the wall. Maybe this will be those letters, we don't know yet. Obviously if that's where He wants us, that's where we want to be. But we hope that's not where He wants us.
I'm about ten steps ahead of myself, I know. Maybe I'll get to keep my job and everything will be fine. But my stomach still hurts every time I think about it.

That IS a scary thought- with this recession everything seems so uncertain and makes you feels so vulnerable. But God does provide and he won't give you more than you can handl! Everything will work out just fine no matter what happens, you can get through it- just gotta trust that!
I (and probably everyone else working/soon-to-be working at a firm) feel your pain! I really hope things turn around soon, but in the meantime, all we can do is live our life. Don't stress until you have something to stress about!
