Good luck with moving! I know that it's a long and painful process

I do not see moving as a painful process. I moved three times with my parents, then as a student in 1970, and in 1974 (for my first job), 1978, 1982, 1986, 1991, 1998, 2000, 2005, and 2008 (where I recently retired). Each time it was an occasion to see new places, to have new friends, to change monotony... nothing painful... just new things to live.

That is the way I am looking at it... though the process of packing and moving is a pain.

I agree. I have moved over 30 times in 30 years (military background, then my own work), often to different countries. In May I am moving to China, and it really is no hassle at all for.... But then - I am used to it.

Good luck Pete.

As a kid growing up, my parents moved about every three or four year. AND I FOUND THEM EVERY TIME!

Glad you made it safely there!  Best of luck to you going forward.  So, what are you going to be doing in Kentucky?

Not 100% sure yet... but got several possibilities. Excited to see where it will take me... but imagine it will take a bit anyway.

It will take me a while to get back into routine. They don't have wifi yet... so I will be limited on how much I am online for a while.

I am trying not to get too excited yet... but as I posted on Facebook...

Wish me luck... think I got me a job! Walgreens (just down the street from me... walking distance) called me back and wants to go on to the next step (drug test). This would be great! I so can't wait to get back to working!


Then a little while later I followed that up with...

Just got back from Walgreens. Filled out and signed a form on their computer... Need to go to Louisville on either Monday or Tuesday for blood test... and said she should know something for me by Friday.

As of yet I still haven't heard anything from Walgreens. So while out on my walk I stopped by there this morning.

- Good News: Drug Test came back... I am not on drugs!
- Great News: I GOT THE JOB!!!!!
- Bad News: I probably won't be starting until the week after next (that is when their budget increase comes in)

They told me that they will give me all the info when the call me in the first day (how many hours...how much I will make...etc.)

It took all I had not to show my excitement right there in the store when she told me I was hired!

I so feel like going out and celebrating... but till now I had no job... so no money to do anything! LOL

Do you ever find yourself striving for perfection with an almost worthless attempt at it?  Guttermouth "Lemon Water".  Also, I include in my Profiler database VHS tapes, audio DVDs, audio books (digital, cassette and CD), video games (digital, DVD and CD) and 'enhanced' CDs with video tracks on them, as well as films and TV I've bought digitally.  So I'm an anarchist, deal with it.  Just be thankful I don't include most of my records and CDs etc in it too; don't think I haven't been tempted...
