Thanks for the friendly responses from everyone. I work full time and decided to return to college for my higher degrees so I hadn't checked back on the forum. I'm glad that there's gatherings. We just bought a nice grill that we'll be bringing in the moving pod. Eight fingers...where are you working? I can't get anyone to even interview me until I arrive there...is that typical? With my 28 years of varied experience plus the nursing shortage...I thought they'd be jumping to recruit me. I've been in LTC now for over 10 years so I'll probably try to get on at the Life Care Center in Hilo unless you have better suggestions? I can't even find out what the typical nurse wages are! Our mortgage loan for the house there should be finalized next week. We're looking at a house in a subdividion on Lehua Drive in Kea'au. We're planning on being there Sept. 9th. I have my prescription snorkel mask and Hawaii nursing license so we're all set as soon as the dog's rabies quarantine time is up. Linda Bowman
