At least

Today was a day of "at least" comments:

At least I still have my job.
This came after I was notified that my hours had been reduced from 30 to 24 effective August 1st.

At least I have inusrance.
This came after I was notified that our insurance co-pay had increased from $25/month to $100/month. effective July 31.

At least the doors to our non-profit are still open.
This came after the announcement that there had been unforseen funding cuts and programming cuts.

Our doors are still open - we are still serving the client base we represent - we can continue on, albeit with fewer staff hours (mine were not the only ones cut) and fewer staff benefits (no COLAs again this year - and no holiday bonus again this year).

At least . . . .

Oh, I HATE to hear that -- so many people are affected by these things, least of all you and your family. Grr.

Hang in there -- sounds like you've got the right attitude so far. Hugs.
