    I'm so sorry to hear this Karen. Remember, when one door closes, another one opens. Maybe this is a sign for you to relax a bit before starting the next job search. Prayers coming from Canada.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    On the bright side, you can spend more time on PT! and playing with Miss Hoppy, like you said. I know it's always kind of distressing to lose a job. Hoping something comes along that you'll enjoy. Chill out while you can!

    I agree with slick
    Remember, when one door closes, another one opens.
    I think it's very true, and wish you the best!

    Sorry to hear that, Karen. I hope you find something better than you had. And, may we now please have a photo thread of Miss Hoppy?

    9/3/13
    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I had worked at that job, starting part-time, almost 17 years ago, and had been full-time for about 10 years. When I started, the magazine was just inside the Boston area, and didn't even have a website. It is now a national publication, with a website that draws visitors from all over the world.

    A photo thread of Miss Hoppy depends on HER cooperating. Sigh. I will try - if she cooperates, I'll post the results!

    Karen, I'm sorry to hear this . Hopefully you'll be able to find a better job soon. For now though, just sit back and relax.

    Major bummer, Karen. What WERE they thinking??? 17 years and they show you the door??? Crap! (sorry for the younger folks) Well, girl, do what I'm doing, start working for yourself! If they don't want to play with you, get your own gig going and to heck with them. What did you do at the magazine? I don't think I ever knew.

    Hugs to you and Miss Hoppy! If we can help at all, let us know. Prayers for you.
