    Jobless & Homeless or starting a new life near Chicago

    Now I am officially jobless for (at least) 9 days. I will be homeless on Sunday (hopefully for no more than a few days).

    The plan is to drive to IL on Sunday, spend Monday checking out apartments, signing a lease, etc. and then driving back to OH on Tuesday to get my stuff and Harlan.
    Then Wednesday morning I will drive back to IL and move into my apartment.

    We'll see how it goes.

    Well said and cute and, very likely, quite true. Enjoy the feeling of freedom for as long as it lasts, UL.

    Best wishes on the move. By my accounting, moving sort of sucks, but the adventure of a new home and job is exciting.

    Hey there, UL on which side of Chicago is your new job? I live an hour straight north, almost to the WI state line.

    I grew up in the Spring Grove/Fox Lake area back in the day. My dad worked out of Waukegan.
