Case of Fear

I have avoided writing about this for a number of reasons, but I think despite the pang in my stomach, I am going to jot a quick line about it.

So about two weeks ago I felt I was given reason to believe that I would be out of a job soon. To put a finer point on it I felt there certain facts stating that today would very likely be my last day.

So I have spent the last two weeks trying to prove that I am indispensable. I have also spent the last two weeks worrying about losing my job. I have been sick to my stomach. My face is broken out. And I have been rather irritable.

Today has come and gone, and there hasn't been so much as a hint that I, or anyone else, would have to be let go. It was a huge relief. Now I am very aware the the economy is iffy at best, and this doesn't mean that I am out of the woods. But I don't want to worry like this for another two weeks, months, years, etc. If it happens I will be hurt, upset and sad, but I am tired of waiting for it to happen.

oye... that would be enough to freak me out. I'm glad you've decided to NOT let the fear of what might happen control you!
