It's been four weeks since Northrop lost his job. While he was making a ton of overtime last year, we paid down debt, and built up our food storage and some savings. We're doing alright. He's getting some unemployment insurance and we've had a few unexpected gifts to help us keep going. Northrop was able to negotiate with our landlady to paint the house for 1 1/3 months rent credit. We've all been enjoying the time we have together. No one is worried, concerned, but enjoying our time together. Applications and resumes have been sent out and continue to be sent out. We may have to look elsewhere. We'll see. I'm looking into getting my hygiene license again.
The kids are taking it all in stride. They're very understanding of us tightening our belts. We are so blessed. Heavenly Father is taking good care of us. Things seem to be going the way He means for them to go and we're ok with that. All is well, all is well.

Good luck with the job search! And way to go on paying down debt, what a blessing it's turning out to be. My prayers are with you!
