Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Finally made the decision to move out of NY, please pray everything works out... 2 households are packing up and getting ready to sell. (I'm definitely too old for this stuff, sigh)
Wishing you a happy landing, in a place where the blessing flow.
Thanks. Now I'm hoping the works doesn't actually collapse tomorrow. Lol.... I need some time.
May God give you the strength and good health as you make this move, his angels lighten the load, and HIS Spirit be ever present within you , in Jesus's name. Amen
Thank you. Amen.
God bless you 🙏! I can't imagine pulling up stakes at my age (64). Well, maybe I could. Family is gone/scattered, just a few friends left. Not to be nosy, but what general area did you decide to flee to from NY? At least it sounds like you're not going alone, so that should help.
Luckily, where I'm at is still pretty good (midwest to northeast). Wouldn't have a clue where to go. SpouseAnon hates winter, but I love the seasons.
I'm 61.... never thought I'd be doing this either. Lol. Headed towards north Florida or South Georgia.
Well, that will be quite a change. Was in south fla a couple times, even Memphis was too hot and humid for me. The warmer climate will probably feel good on old bones, though. Be sure you have a place to hunker down during hurricanes! 😄
But all kidding aside, I wish you the best, glad you have another household with you, will make it that much easier! I admire your courage to do this. Let us know how it goes.
Thanks. I will keep ya posted.
Holy Father, I pray u/polish_snausage ‘s departure and arrival happen swiftly and serenely for his family, himself and their belongings. May this new life exceed their expectations!🙏🏻
Amen. Thank you fren
