Your 4 year degree is in?

BSN? Bio?

I work in healthcare but have no patient contact and at a facility that doesn't even have patients, so no giving directions in the hallway for me. My wage is quite livable, and I'm a medical laboratory scientist.

Dream job though would be working at Johnny's Seed company!

My son bought a car from New Hampshire without getting a title. Stupid I know, but lesson learned (I hope). Well it turned out to be a salvage vehicle which led to more hassle. One more thing to watch out for.

Most local groups in Maine post on local Facebook pages. Just generally speaking it's a good idea to be aware of the local pages even if you aren't on Facebook yourself. Just mentioning it because to someone who doesn't normally use it, it might not be obvious. Another source of local groups and activities are the small penny saver type local papers that run weekly listings. Most have an online presence these days. A google of the town or area you're moving to should bring these up.

I’ve had it since September. It’s been excellent. Stable speeds, no noticeable dips. Excellent response time. I’m getting pretty darn close to a gig reliably when hardwired. 400-600mbps over WiFi throughout the house, but that’s a limitation of my equipment, not Fidium. Eventually I’ll upgrade. Zero downtime so far, even when we had some ice on the fiber line in that super cold spell.

Spectrum went full nuclear and tried to tell me they’d be out of business in a year and are a “fly by night” company. I just laughed. Felt great to tell them to shut my account off.

Definitely consider Marshall Point Lighthouse in Port Clyde, which was featured in Forrest Gump. Totally picturesque worthy of popping the question. It’s beautiful during the day, but nothing beats lighthouses at night. Recently, many people flocked to capture the aurora borealis that just occurred recently here in Maine. Maybe you guys will get lucky and see some, or even some Milky Way galaxies!
