[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 762629, member: 15032"] Thank you all so much for your kind words of encouragement and prayers. I appreciate it all from the bottom of my heart. So a bit of an update. I have not been here for a few weeks due to our move to Chicagoland. We have safety settled in and are going through boxes. I am not sure how we accumulated so much "stuff" in 4 years of living in Alabama!! We are both exhausted but starting to "dig out". I'm working remotely now for my company for at least three months and hopefully longer. Husband starts new job in September but is still with current employer until the end of this month. So as for our son. He got here a few days before us and found a job at Amazon and started today. It is 25 hours per week but supposedly you can work more hours. The pay is very good. He also had a great interview at Menards (similar to Home Depot) and is waiting to hear back. The store manager liked him a lot and was waiting for the HR lady to get back from vacation. I think he's more suited to Amazon with his IT background even though it's warehouse work - it's very high tech and I think he'll like it. There is a major apartment shortage here. He and his dad did find something for an October move in so he is back with us until then. The apartment hotel he was staying at was much too expensive. I do think that he has been humbled by this experience. He has been very helpful in this move organizing our home due to his age and strength. We were just lucky to find this apartment. We will have to supplement him for a while but after that he's on his own. We are all looking forward to his October 10 move out date. Of course I worry that he will get anxiety medications when he gets insurance again but if so that is on him. There is nothing I can do at this point but hope and pray he makes the right decisions. We are ready to be empty nesters!! [/QUOTE]
