I will start this out with the funny and then go on to the not so funny.

I was checking my e-mail yesterday and Olive was happily playing outside by herself when it struck me that it was offly quite outside. Never a good sign. So I got up to see what Olive was up to. I opened up the back slider and what to my surprise was waiting for me outside and upon the lawn you ask? Non other than a Mr. Dookie himself. It looked as though a dog had come and shat in my yard. A perfect little frozen yogurt shape. Then along came Olive with this stuff all over her hands and legs. She thought it was funny, and I guess I did too. Until it was time to clean it up.
Yuk!

This week has been very stressful for John at work and for me that means very lonely nights. He had to help layoff 100+ people from his work yesterday. One of the hardest things he has ever had to do I am sure. His place of work is such a unique place. I have never seen a company work so hard as a whole to accomplish their goals and a have a company be so generous to its employees. This has been a major loss. I feel as though I am morning myself and I didn't even work there. I have been so close to everything being John's wife. From John being with the company when it was only 8 employees. I am so sad. John has been so distracted on helping out with what is next for the company that he has been gone. It is what I expect from him because I know I would be doing the same. I am so sad for everyone who has lost their jobs and most say it was the best job they have ever had. I am so sad for all the heads of the company because I am sure it was a difficult decision to make. I can only imagine what is like to go back to work with more than half your friends and colleagues gone or waking up and not having a job to go to. I guess we can just see it as a new beginning for them. I have complete faith that this company will be back to where it was because I have complete faith in the people running this company. Some of the smartest people around and I can't wait to see what they will do next.
