I've arrived in my new home, unfurnished and in need of upgrades.
I'm using the local public library for Internet access and have applied to a local grocer's as well as the City of Jacksonville for employment (my writing has never been able to pay the rent).
I am reconsidering online editorial work.
I had almost re-applied to Michigan State University to finish my B.A. in English, but when Fortune's hand was dealt, I chose being closer to my grandchildren over the degree. There still will be time, I believe, to finish before I turn 80!
Blessings to everyone! (There is no need to respond to this post, as I have no idea when I will be able to respond to anyone.) Take care and keep writing!
Blessings to you in your new home Marie. I hope that everything turns out as you would wish it to. Enjoy your time with your grandchildren. I for one am rooting for you.
Is that what you wanted? Great, congratulations. Have success, be blessed and live long peacefully. Shalom.
Good to hear you are moving in the right direction. I am happy for you. Your grandchildren are lucky to have you.
Marie, I’m glad to hear that everything is working out for you. You are quite lucky to be able to use the public library for Internet access. I live in Pittsburgh and all public libraries in the region have been closed since March. Anyways, keep up the admirable work, and I wish you the very best in everything.

Why does my Hubscore drop every single time I interact here? Does this happen to others? For crying out loud, I've seen people who haven't been active for months, if not years and their scores are still in the high 90s. What the heck is going on? Is this platform even worth it anymore? Just sign me...
