Oh, Tep, my condolences to your mom. Our own parish just shut down its K-6 school completely last year--even before the economy tanked altogether, the whole Bay Area was struggling and enrollment had dropped by somewhere between a quarter and half. But at least they worked their asses off to find other jobs for the one or two staffers who were in something like your mom's position (mostly half-time work in various diocese offices, but at least something), so they'd have some kind of continuous paycheck until they actually hit 65. The people at your mom's school, OTOH, just sound kind of dickish.
I'm so sorry for her. In addition to all the financial worries, what an utter gutpunch.
I'm sorry, Steph.
I hope things smooth out for you soon, smonster.
Thanks for the good wishes, all. Stoopid meds. Stoopid, necessary meds.
Feh on that to ita and smonster and Mom of Tep. You deserve better.
Damn, Tep, that is cold. Hoping your mom is able to make some sort of peace with it quickly. Effers.
whoa ~~~sending out the ma~~~~
Craziness
Andy cat is chasing and tossing a stuffed mouse around the house.
Tep, give your Mom my best wishes.
JesusGOD, Tep, that freakin' blows. I suppose she doesn't have any other recourse other than to shoot them the finger as she leaves the building?

I so wish I was going to F2F. But as it turns out, it may have been for the better, in terms of some other stuff. We'll see.
