RELIEF!!!!

Brendon still has a job!!! The last 6-8 weeks have been most likely the most stressful time we've ever had to deal with. Through our 8 years together we have dealt with me moving across the globe, NZ immigration, death of family members....all hard things to cope with. Nothing quite prepared us for the fear of Brendon being laid off from Fonterra.

I don't think we coped very well. We picked at each other and let little things get to us. Yesterday was finally the day that we would know if they still wanted to keep him. Thankfully, Fonterra, in its infinite wisdom, have seen fit to retain him in his position of Research Scientist.

It felt like the world fell off our shoulders when we got the good news. I wouldn't wish that feeling on anyone. You just can't think straight and you walk on pins and needles for weeks.

Thanks for all that praying from our friends and family. I'm sure you all had something to do with it.
