Don't worry, I will come back.
I enjoy this place very much.
Right now there is so much to do and take care of.
He was a wonderful Husband and I shall miss him greatly. He told me to continue to enjoy life and that's what I'm doing.

So far, this day is going great....

Most heartfelt condolences, Peach. It's been a long battle for you and Mr. Peach. I have full confidence that you will bounce back and still cherish your memories. You are so strong.
Oh Peach, I'm so sorry for your loss. May God grant you the peace that passes all understanding.
Thanks Foxfyre!Hi Foxfyre
thanks for your message!
I feel better now, no headache. But I've spent two days in bed....always with headache
I called my doctor but he don't want to visit because of the virus and the lockdown...he just answers the phone (he told me to take some paracetamol)
So good to hear you're feeling better, and I hope you are able to get tested soon. I think it quite possible you did have the virus and it would be good to know that if that was the case. At least if they determine that having it gives us immunity.
In March, I had three or so days with a bad headache--bad enough I needed to take pain relievers and one day of a slight sore throat. I am one that almost never has headaches. The following week or so Hombre had the same thing and he too almost never has headaches. I didn't have a thermometer then so don't know if we had a fever.
The symptoms passed and it was after that they started really describing symptoms. And now we wonder if he had the virus. Most people who get it do have fairly short lived and non life threatening symptoms. We've not been tested either though so until we are, we won't know.
My condolences peach174
I need to get my FL license and registration, but I don't have the proper address verification yet. I'm still waiting for the usual postal packet you get when you change your address, and although I was able to get FL car insurance, it hasn't been processed on the website so I can't print out anything from that. None of the bills are in my name here, so I can't use those. I also have to have an appointment to get a license (no walk-ins) and the earliest I could get was July 14. I might be able to go into the next county and just walk in to the DMV there.
I've had a couple of interviews and went to a pre-employment test at another place, but so far I'm still looking for a job. I expected to find out about one before today, but I'm still waiting; it would be good as far as schedule and location, and acceptable for salary.
It turns out I actually got a job offer from USPS, but it came via email right as I was getting everything packed up and moving. They only give you a few days to reply, and oddly enough, while they sent quite a few emails to me about it, I think the second one was both a reminder I had an offer and a notice that the offer was rescinded. Luckily it was for a job I probably shouldn't have applied for anyway: a lot of manual labor, they describe it as arduous physical activity. I don't mind manual labor, but I'm not a big guy, nor all that young anymore, so I don't know how well I'd have done in the position. Still, it might have been good to take it, tough it out for a year, and hope to use it to transition to another position. I still have a number of postal applications in, so we'll see how those go.
So far things are going pretty well here otherwise. The pets all like me. Actually, the female dog likes me too much; she's been licking me like crazy the past week. I'm on a daytime sleep schedule and have been fine with that, although my lady does go to sleep earlier than I do and gets up a bit earlier. The weather is, of course, hot and humid, but it's cold in the house.
The internet here isn't great, sadly. It's all wireless and the router is in a poor location, but there aren't any other places wired for it. I may end up seeing if I can move it around a bit, or even run a long ethernet cable clipped along the ceiling or something to get it into a better location.
Just thought I'd give a little update. The board is continuing to be filled with garbage lately. The various issues in the country have not brought out the best in posters here. If you don't hear from me much, it's because I'm just not coming here as often.
Unfortunately I don't feel very well now
I've got a severe headache that increases with coughing and movement!
I think I'm going to sleep
See you next time
I got a job offer from the place I was hoping for. It will be less money than I was making in Georgia because I won't be getting the shift differential I had working third shift, but it's pretty close, it's enough money, and it's similar work to what I was doing. I expect to be able to do well at it without having too long of a learning period.
I'll be starting July 13. Hopefully it's a good job, as there are a couple of other possibilities I put in for that I could still end up getting offers on, but will now be declining if I do.
Now I just need to get my license and registration on my car for FL (which should include my voter registration) and I'll be pretty much set. The only thing left is to figure out why I was willing to come back to this humid hellhole of a state.
Georgia can be hot and humid, but it has all 4 seasons. Florida is more like 10 months of summer and 2 months of fall.I got a job offer from the place I was hoping for.

I guess I always thought of Georgia as 'deep south', i.e. magnolia trees, humidity etc., more than I've thought of Florida that way. But I've spent no time in either state so my imagination probably isn't too accurate. Good news on getting the job you wanted though. That should relieve the stress cxonsiderably.
Congratulations and good luck, Montro! It seems you are moving on with life.I got a job offer from the place I was hoping for.
