sounds like it went well for you B|

Well I do try to live my life intentionally to the fullest. I think people have said that I like to give it my all when I try things. I think a lot of people can focus on that if they wanted too. They might just not have spirit to be believe they can do it.

I've seen better...

2017 - Father died, (cancer) Aunt died (alcoholism), good family friend died (West Nile Encephalitis) , all within 6 months.  Moved my Mom in with me.

2019 - Employer changed hands.  Mgr left, but recommended that to keep myself and my coworker, the company take part of his abandoned salary and give us raises.  I was stunned when I was given a 5 figure raise (that s**t don't happen) but also figured that it could be a problem later.  I was caught up in the last downsizing of the year.  Got 20 wks. severance.

Less important stuff happened too.

It transmuted me from one kind of insane nihilistic extremist, to the opposite kind. Beyond that, I'm kind of in the same boat as I was 10 years ago, but with less hair. also some of it is gray now, which concerns me greatly. Also I can get hungover now if I drink too much, that never happened before last year.

agreed that this getting older sucks.

Looking, but I have time to try to find a good fit because of the 20 weeks.  There are companies I wouldn't mind working for, or maybe go to work for the city I live in if they have a suitable position.
