Thank you all for your kind words.
I felt (and still feel)so embarrassed that I posted this thread.
It turns out the my friend was being funny. She’s not the least bit upset that she and her husband lost both jobs. And in fact she’s delighted.
I hear what all of you are saying. I’m overthinking something that’s not a big deal.
I appreciate everyone’s thoughtfulness.
Life has to get better. I can’t be scared all of the time.
