thanks jennifer!
then i turn on my computer on SUNDAY morning, to discover i've won the same award again from veggiemom, who gave it to me as part of six word SATURDAY.
right now, my six words would be
HAD A MELTDOWN. WILL BE OK
i guess that's what happens when you go back to [paid] word after 20 years, and whilst you make the transition easy, the rest of the family doesn't; and at the same time, your husband loses HIS job, and a parent becomes ill.
i do believe change is good. sometimes it happens to fast. sometimes it doesn't happen fast enough. sometimes the concept is simply overwhelming.
meh. i'm sure it's nothin' that can't be fixed with a proper fitting bra.
i'm supposed to hand my award/s onto 15 new blogs i've discovered. it just so happens that i HAVE discovered a few new blogs lately, and i promise to linky love them soon!

Hi from SiTS! I got the award for the 15 blogs too and didn't participate. :-( takes too much time! I see you scrapbook? I make cards! nice "meeting" you!
You're welcome!
I hope the meltdown is over and things start looking up. Sorry to hear about your husbands job.
Hang in there!
you're too funny...got to laff so u don't cry...
relative to meltdown...i'm still melting ;)
can you say menopausal?!
only those who have or are going thru it understand with compassion the suffering of others...and dahlin', i'm feelin' ur pain!
have a wonderful Monday...pretend it's really friday, you'll feel better :)
I like your six words! I think i need to put them on a tshirt to remind myself of the latter part. LOL
Congratulations on your award(s)! Glad to hear that the meltdown is over. A similar thing happened to me when I returned to work, after a long absence. Everyone was OK with me working as long as their lives didn't have to change at all. Sorry about your husband's job. We've been in that situation more than once. It seems that no job is safe, nowadays.
Congrats on the award! I really hope things settle down for you soon while everyone adjusts.
Thanks for playing Six Word Saturday!
Oh no, SS. Just hang in there! I'm so sorry to hear about the parent who is ill and the job that is no longer. Just think of this part of your life as going through a tunnel and remember that no tunnel goes on forever, even though sometimes they seem as they do! Keep forging ahead all the while looking toward the light at the end and that will help get you through. Things always get better and they will for you too! Get well wishes for the mom or dad who's sick.
Oh.....hang in there,sweet! I am sure something always come for a reason, and it is always prepared us for the better one.
Have a great week ahead!
Meltdown sounds necessary. Good positive attitude.

It had to be at least a little scary going back to work. I could use those same 6 words.
Congrats on your awards.
And Oh No! about the meltdown. Things do seems to all happen at once, don't they? I'm sending many international hugs your way. Canadian hugs are covered in powdered sugar.
Hope things work out ... but you sure can laugh about it.
I think it's so cool Tuesday is already ending for you! Here it's still Monday afternoon!
Love your six words - good luck with the bra. :)
Love the graphic

Life's cosmic joke is that it throws multiple adversities at you all at once, instead of spreading it out so you might handle things better. Chin up, chest out, breathe.
OKay so congrats on the new job. I am so sorry to hear about your hub's job. That is not fun. Good luck with finding a new one. I love your six words, I have been feeling that way myself, for different reasons. I came across this saying recently and it is good too ( I like what insider53 said about chin, chest, etc)-- Keep calm and carry on.
