Hard week

Last night was another night at the Irish pub with friends. This time with much more purpose - unfortunately the week has been very bad for our friends as The Company Dragon works for has laid off quite a few people. Dragon's good and is in no danger, but one of our friend was let go (hell, that's such a nice way of saying it - she was fired) and another one has been given two weeks to find something inside the company or get fired as well.

In one way it makes it more easy that many people have been laid off - it's not something you did, it's just a knee jerk reaction to whatever the latest trend in the markets. Still, it's very difficult to not to take personally, it is after all one of the most significant things in the world - for you. In situations like this friends just need friends there: none of us have their families here so being able to just let it all out with friends and try to forget everything else - it's so important.

To relax, fortunately I've got a Sarah Powers' yoga workshop booked for the weekend. I so need it.
