How do I tell my family about the layoff? (Tulsa)

I have been leaving the house at the same time each day so my kids do not notice. I worked as a teaching assistant before this. Bills are coming up and I cannot keep this quiet.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

I told my partner the same evening with a simple plan: what happened, what I was doing and what I needed. It was a relief.
