Hey, Married! Glad to see this positive thread!! I had posted one that my hubby lost his job this past Thursday and I have been waiting for some kind of nuclear bomb to go off or something. But, he has done wonderful. Just a tad down. He's mowing everyones yards today. Ours sure looks better. During this time of trauma I just talked to him in a very light and positive way. I brought up all the good things about this.. like how the company was holding him back and weren't paying him enough (true, been thinking this for a long time) and how he would've never quit and would've been stuck, but now is his opportunity to get the job that pays what he deserves and so on and so forth.... I think keeping the situation light and not getting sad or upset myself has really helped. Speaking in easy tones (like you mentioned).... and I tend to speak dramatically and with my hands like you do.. so none of that this weekend. lol Courage is being afraid but going on anyhow.
