Getting fired does crazy things to your head. Don't beat yourself up about that. In my case, I knew it was coming and it still threw me for a loop... in your case it was out of left field! If you were dating a man and he dumped you out of the blue while things were going great, you would expect to have some emotional fall out from that. It makes sense to have the same coming out of this situation.
ER - When are you going on vacation? I guess what I'm asking is, is this something that's about to be a real concern, or are you stressing out way in advance? If it's the first then a strategy is probably necessary... if it's the second then it might be best to just shut the thought process down when it begins...
