Except that you have to get up and go to work at like 4:30 am... you miss rush hour traffic... and the best time of day to make love... decisions, decisions...

You are truly a genius! I love you. And how about canned asparagus?! WTF!Quote:

Good point, but I often wonder what my life would be like if I were to pursue my dreams unchecked. Just a thought.Quote:

I didn't need to be trapped by anything else either...I felt like I spent the entire last year of it planning my escape... he had stopped growing (well, I don't think he matured past about 15 anyway, but...) and I still feel like I have a life ahead of me... one of the reasons I love the Yeag... he has the adventure in him still.... you need encouragement to pursue your dreams... it CAN be done... financial security and happiness are NOT mutually exclusive!Quote:

My area is FAMOUS for our amazing tender sweet asparagus... only what, another 6-8 weeks before it heralds the start of the farm stand season, all those little perky spears showing up on trailers parked by the side of the road... just waiting to become an omlette... mmmmm leftover fondue and asparagus omlettes are like stepping into the orgasmatron.
Just an idea...Since you will get the salary for at least a years pay, maybe you could go back to school and then find a job doing something that you love. Honestly, I wish I would have went to a tech school instead of a university (4-year) because tech is a lot cheaper (virtually free if your state has the lottery or whatever). Also, there are a lot more jobs out there with a 2 year degree that pay more than one with a 4-year degree. I would take this time to reflect on what you love, spend time with your children, etc. I wouldn't rush into a job just to have money, but spend time applying and searching for better jobs. Monster.com is a good place to start. Sorry if I didn't help much...just some ideas. :) Hope they helped you!
I have not read every post here, so I apologize if these questions have been answered.
Will the company dole the pay out to you incrementally for a year? How long will medical (or other) benefits continue? After you're finished with the severance payout(s), can you go on unemployment insurance? The last option is great - you can continue to collect for at least six months.
thanks. i admire my momQuote:
