here's to the little things

The amount of stress I'm feeling right now? I didn't know it could even exist in my body without my body completely imploding.

Our company has informed us they will be making huge layoffs in two weeks and that those who are not laid off can expect a salary reduction AND mandatory furloughs.

I'm not entirely sure why they thought it prudent to tell us this now. Where is the good, the wise or the beneficial in giving us two weeks to stew, fret and wonder?

On the upside, I am making a tasty Valentine's Day dinner (nothing fancy - just comfort food - veggie meatloaf, mashed sweet potatoes, roasted green beans and brownies) and my students have been, for the time being anyway, much more engaged.

Here's to the little things.
