ELeVan ~ Honaker Farm Journal

Seems it's always "raining"...and when it rains, it pours.

DH is losing his job...that stinks big time.

I have to put farm plans that I made for this summer on hold and hope that he finds a new job fairly quickly or we might have to lighten the load in regards to the animals that we already have. Good thing that nice weather is here and they can eat grass and bugs pretty exclusively.

That really stinks. I hope he can find a new job quickly. What does your DH do? If is it a specialized job it may be harder to stay in that area. Hopefully your job market is better than mine. My DH has been hunting a job in SC so we can move down there. I need to put the details of that in my journal but haven't yet because there have been no replies back on anything my DH has applied to in SC.
Praying your DH finds a job quickly, I know all too well how tight things get when both adults in the house aren't working.

Ahh.......a too common story here lately.

so sorry to hear that. I hope he finds one quickly

He has some prospects already lined up. He's in retail management Marlowmanor, but will probably have to take a step down the ladder just to get a position. The worst part of it is that he was stabbed in the back by his assistant manager who wants his job.

At least he has some prospects lined up. As for the assistant managers behavior, I'm reminded of the saying "what goes around comes around". I bet the behavior comes back to bite them later. Starting lower on the ladder can stink for a bit, but if your DH is good at his job I bet he climbs back up the ladder quickly.

My hubby was in retail for 20 some odd years. Retail can be BRUTAL, and this economy is NOT helping. We were fortunate enough that Hubby could quit his job before it got so bad as his work.

It's usually the nice guy that gets the most problems, too.

Maybe this is not so much of a challenge but more of an opportunity. Hopefully, this will prove his chance to land the awesome job that provides well and doenst make him or the family unhappy.

Maggie is a little freaked out about cameras around her baby

Isn't this the cutest thing you've ever seen?!

My newest broody hen, Cruella

 

[Queen Mum]

Wow! Cruella is BEAUTIFUL!

 

[marlowmanor]

Since you have better pictures of Priya now she looks more black, but maybe that is the lighting(or lack thereof). Cruella is a pretty hen. One of our chicks we think may be an EE/polish cross and it has the mohawk look going on, similar to Cruella. If it turns out to be a hen (I'm suspicious that it may be a roo) I think it will be a pretty neat looking chicken.
