Trick or Treat

I feel like my life is in a non-ending horror movie. Just when you least expect it, BOO something bad comes knocking on your door. You would think by this point, that I would no longer be surprised.

Yesterday, we were told we were having a team meeting, and in my stomach there was a knot saying that it wasn't going to be good. Sadly, I was right! We were taken off the phones to be told that as of January, we will be laid off from TG. Now, while I knew this was coming, I 1) did not expect it to be so soon and 2) felt confident convergys would just transfer me to another project as they had led us to believe. But as always, nothing goes according to plan in my life. Convergys made it clear there is no guarantee they will keep any of us, no matter seniority or any other factor.

As for unemployment, I called them this morning. As it was explained to me, I have two options. Either I get laid off b4 Nov 30th, and I can get an extension from my past unemployment case. Or, I have to work till Jan to make enough to qualify for a new case. Personally, I would love to get back on unemployment, as I have a grant to go back to school FT. Being a single mom and working FT, does not really allow me to go to school FT on top of it all.

I know God has always provided in the past, and I anticipate Him providing now. My flesh wants to worry and fret, and of course, be upset that this has happened to me twice in less than a year. I would appreciate prayers for my family, peace for my heart, and that God will direct our paths from here.
