    Long ago when I was young, single and already had a plan for the future, I was in a position of uncertainty about my job for the better part of a year, and remembering how INCREDIBLY stressful that was, I can only imagine how much worse it must be for someone farther along in her life and career.

    I agree that the more you can do to feel in control - start the job search now, have a plan for what you'll cut back on first if either or both of you do become unemployed - the better you'll feel.

    Hang in there. I'll keep you and your DH in my prayers.

    (((Wildhawk))). So many people in that situation, waiting and hoping the worst doesn't come. My office just restructured the staff and cut all of their hours, and let one person go. We are all holding our breath, too.

    What great advice Mr. Silver gives. I think we all could benefit from it.

    Hang in there.

    ((wildhawk)). One bright side for the moment is that you have some indications and advanced warning so to speak, and are not blindsided. This will allow to to be pro-active early and plan, re-adjust, and revise some contingency plans for alternate scenarios if possible. The two eggs in one basket is a little unsettling. I wish you the best.
