Looking up

It's been an interesting week, first my birthday,
then our wedding anniversary - and the flowers I ordered for Mandy were mostly dead,
then I was told I was being made redundant after 27 years.......

Being the eternal optimist I see this as an opportunity,
I just don't know what I want to do next, but it'll be a new challenge.

Such a beautiful image of light and shadow. A cool quiet place of in-between, perhaps reflecting your current situation, a pause to reflect, breathe deeply, before next steps along the winding path.

First - a belated Happy Birthday! Stay optimistic and be open to all possibilities. Good luck to you!

Lovely image.
Sorry about the work news, I am sure you will rise to the challenge and do what's best for you and your family.

Happy Belated Birthday. That does sound like a roller coaster week. I like your attitude and I'd bet money you'll land on your feet and love your new opportunities.

Lovely bluebell woods there and Happy Birthday. :-)
Certainly sounds an eventful week - looking for a new job after 27 years must feel daunting.
I hope there is plenty of support available as part of your redundancy package.
Good luck. :-)

recent ups and downs to deal with it seems John...a belated happy birthday for starters, as your very existence would seem well worth celebrating...you are certainly not redundant on pbase (despite few recent pix of Ozzy!!), although can't see the online camaraderie paying the bills...your wit and energy should see you rise to the new challenge...since I retired a few years ago, all the free time has proved a real boon, and may do for you as well...best to avoid dwelling on any problem, and instead search for solutions..
