Changes

Good morning peeps! It's time for new Wee Memories challenge. This week our theme is "All Things Adorable" and we are sponsored by the company who's known for their adorable stamps "Your Next Stamp".


Here's my card for the challenge. Keeping it sweet & simple. :)


Please check out the DT fabulous samples at Wee Memories. And, come play with us!

Now, on personal level, yesterday was a bad day for me. Still couldn't quite wrap my mind around it. I just get laid off. :( The company have to restructure themselves in order to survive and unfortunately they had to let me go. What hurt is because I am a hard worker, always give my 100% to the company, and my immediate boss knows it, too. He fought for me, but the final decision is with the owner of the company.

Am I shock? Yes. Am I scared?  Yes. However, I am grateful that hubby still has his job. And, I always believe that God always watching over our family and that this is part of His plan. It's hard for me to deal with changes sometimes, but I see this as blessings in disguise. I don't know yet, what is the blessings or how things will work out, but things always happen for a reason. 

I guess for now, while I am brainstorming on what I want to do next, I'll fill up my time with major top to bottom cleaning of the house, finish all the books I want to finish, and learn to cook better. Yeah... hubby is usually the one who cooks, so now he'll get to be my guinea pig. It's going to be interesting. :)

Please pray for me that may new opportunity show up soon. My cousin think I should start teaching card/scrapbook classes from home. We'll see. I am brainstorming. Changes equal new opportunity! Here's to changes...

You have a great attitude and I am sure that will
help you through it. I love that you are already
thinking about ways to learn new things. I am

Oh Vera, Im so very sorry to hear that you got laid off, but everything happens for a reason and I am sure there are bigger and brighter things ahead for you. You are so talented and creative that you never know where that road may lead. File for your unemployment right away and then send out your resumes. I have a very good feeling that you will get another job quickly!

*Hugs*
