We had hoped yesterday that we could have eased it today, but today we were
told they want us out by the end of the month. Don and I will leave the end
of this month, Stuart is trying to wangle another month for himself and
Natalie. Don and I are out of work as of March 31. He's got some things he
has to do to wind his law business down, so I gave him some suggestions this
afternoon. Once he's completed the work he's doing (he will not leave
clients in the lurch) he's looking at finishing his accounting courses and
getting a CPA and working in accounting instead of law

Stuart wants to continue as a sole practitioner, so I gave him some ideas of
where he might find office space. He wants to keep Natalie, but she won't
stay with just him, it's the whole package she enjoyed. If Don and I are
gone, she'll look for work closer to home. I don't know what Stuart with do
without her.

My bosses are making sure the severance slip is filled out so that I have
the best chance possible of getting unemployment, that is, making sure they
give me a good reference,  say they'd hire me again if they had the chance,
and fillling out the forms that say I was let go because of dissolution of
business, not anything I did.

That will at least give me 2/3 of my income until I can find something. I
want out of Law. I'll look for chimp work that's within walking distance
from my home so that I can spend as much time as possible writing, and
dealing with the publishers and agents to really push making enough from my
writing that I don't ever have to work outside the house again

Laurie hearing from the publisher would be a good thing right about now
