Life in the Bottle has an unexpected interruption.

I had planned to go back to work in mid-April working only a couple of days a week, but life is what happens while you’re making plans. David was terminated from his job at the Kennedy Space Center after 15 years, effective last Friday. We’re still trying to wrap our minds around the fact that David has worked there with extremely good evaluations and reviews for 15 years. We are now facing quite a dilemma, because our health insurance will end the last day of March. I am still early into my cancer treatment and reconstruction. To enable me to continue medical treatment, we must maintain a Cobra policy. David is still trying to find out all the details necessary to make that transition seamless, but one thing is very clear. I need to go back to work as soon as possible, and I need to go back full-time. I will go back to work on March 31st.
One of the enduring strengths of my marriage has been that when life is the roughest, David and I pull together. We will get through this mess also, but my heart hurts for the unfairness of it all. I truly believe that God is not surprised by these events, and His purpose will be accomplished. If I didn’t hold those facts close to me, I couldn’t get up in the morning.
