I just finished juicing a lime... so DH could have a drink after having been forced to let go 3 employees, one a good friend. And I also made homemade "lazy" chicken soup from scratch, sort of. That's the good news. Despite a rotten sore throat and serious fatigue, the requester of chicken soup (11 yo DD), has a sense of humor. While carrying the rotisserie chicken, I noticed that it was on its side in the package and said so. DD says "Maybe it's taking a dustbath in the broth!" Thank Heaven for daughters who maintain their even keel under the most trying of circumstances, so far (Middle school is NOT to be revisited by the wise!) and for Hubbys who manage to do a crummy thing in the face of possible unemployment in order to keep their own family fed. (without crying in public, not all that easy) Hope everyone out there is having a decent week so far.
