Since the last time I posted, I have started a new job, and my husband has lost his. Actually, he knows where it is, it is just that someone else now has it.He expects to have a new job next week.
We've been doing all we can to find one. DH even sent back a key to the Queen Mary he's had in his possession since before we were married. We think it was haunting our house. When we had it, we kept shocking ourselves on door handles and light switches. Since sending it back -- no shock!
We've found ways to work around this economic mess -- cooking more at home, staying in at night, not driving for the hell of it, and I can't remember the last time I was at the mall.
We still are going on our European cruise in May, as canceling would cost us far more than going. For the first time, we'll both be going to a part of the world neither of us has been to ... and in a language neither of us can speak.
So if anyone knows any choice words in Danish or Finnish for "where can I get a cheap lunch?" let me know.
