TOUGH TIMES!!

I can't believe how tough things are getting in the economy..I know things have been getting bad for sometime...but now its hit HOME!! This past Wednesday I was at work when I got a text from my brother saying "Dad just lost his job"...I immediately got sick to my stomach!! See.. now both of my parents have lost their jobs do to the economy...it sucks (no other word describes it)! My Mom has been without a job for about a year and half now..she has been trying like crazy to find something but is having trouble finding work..and now my Dad!! My Dad worked for MI Homes..and we were worried for him because the housing market sucks right now!! My parents moved to North Carolina because of my Dad's job..Columbus housing market started to go down about three years ago..so MI relocated my Dad to N.C...and NOW he has lost his job down there!! So I called my parents to get the full story & to see if they were ok! When my Mom answered the phone the only thing I could do was cry...so of course I made my mom cry..I asked if they were ok..and Mom said yes!! Then she put Dad on the phone and I start crying more...Dad told that everything was going to be ok..that he got a nice severance package! He said it was very hard on his boss to let him go and if things start picking up that my Dad will be the first person they call back! So lets hope that happens soon!!
