Oh have been there and done that! Was sa single mother of two young children, bought a new truck and came in on a friday, at the end of the day, was laid off, thankfully was with a very supportive person, was only off work for two weeks, started a new job at $3.00 more an hour (but no benefits). Worked there for three years and then landed my current position which now I make $20 more an hour than I did at the place I was laid off.
Keep positive, go and enjoy your vacation, lean on DH for your support and then when you get back, you can hit the job market refreshed and relaxed (nothing states desperation more than stressed out). Not a good appearance when you are interviewing.
Good luck and know we here also can be supportive to you.
