So how is the job hunting, health care, etc going?
Still unemployed.
In the "new age" of job hunting, everyone wants you to apply online. This really sucks, I used to be able to walk into a place, fill out an application - and often I would get an "on the spot" interview, maybe even get hired that day. Even worse, many employers want you to submit your social security number online! Hey, great idea... now I've revealed my SS# to hundreds of people for no reason.
As far as medical, having recently moved, my kids have medicaid - in the state we moved from, and I have health insurance that's only good if I drive 100 miles back to that state. And I don't want to change it at this time, since open enrollment starts in November and this state is rolling out a new system soon.
On the bright side, I did have 2 interviews this month, and I have enough cash to last a while before things get ugly...
