Ethel hadn’t originally planned on traveling to Thailand for her 55th birthday, but after unceremoniously being relieved of her job as Chief Marketing Officer at Hausfrau International, she decided, why the hell not

Cool! I want to explore a cool foreign country one day again.

I love traveling - I’ve never been to Thailand, but I really want to!

Love that you found a way to make the fall a positive for her! Nicely done.

Thanks so much! I’m a very positive person, and it always seems to sneak in to my writing, lol!

There are so many amazing places in the world to explore... If I had the means, I'd certainly want to check out quite a few as well. I also know what it's like to be expecting the ax for long enough that it's a relief whenever it finally does come down. When my latest contract ended a few days early due to lockdown, I'd also already packed up and taken home anything personal a few days prior.

There are so many fascinating places to explore! I’m a bit of a Gypsy with my love of travel. Thanks for reading!

Wouldn't that be AMAZING?!?! I liked this little story of positivity in the face of far-too-common negativity.

I’m a very optimistic person, and it tends to sneak into my writing. Thanks for reading!

What a wonderful way to handle a termination! I'm sure that it helped feeling that it was coming, so it wasn't a surprise, but this is the best way to handle such news. Great entry.
