So you are having "lunch" outside at a restaurant? Hope the weather's nice...

S10 is almost halfway through the league. They play each team twice. They have not been within 8 points of anyone. I think the youth basketball director needs to drop them down a division next year to get some smaller schools. Right now we are playing all the big schools from the big town near us. They are getting beat so badly that they can't run their plays or learn their skills on the floor. The other teams are just too big, fast, strong.

I was just told that my job is being eliminated at the end of February. I'm not the only one, there's entire restructuring going on. But I've been here 16 years and am one of the most highly paid, so it was easy to decide to get rid of me.
What am I going to do? The reason I've kept this job so long is that it gives me great flexibility to be with my kids and I have a lot of vacation time built up. Who's going to hire a 50 year old woman who's been out of her real profession for 20 years?
I'm so sorry, RPP. Is the church in financial hardship?

Sorry rpp- When it rains it pours. You were a CPA, right (or something like it)? I work in healthcare and I can tell you my organization is desperate for anyone with an accounting background. They pay major bonuses to anyone who can refer a quality candidate. You might have to take a class or two about the complexities of medical billing - although the finance people I have worked with here are not particularly knowledgeable on those topics.
I can tell you that the 20 year gap would not be particularly meaningful here.
Take heart - There's stuff out there. And from all you have written it sounds to me like you have lots of networking possibilities.
It's actually a little overcast today, but still warm enough to sit outside.
