Florida “Low” is probably 60%. All relative to what they normally get, right? 🤔

Reminds me of an opposite situation a couple years ago in Vegas. While on vacation in October, because of a few days of cloud cover and some intermittent rains, the weather people kept on warning people to stay hydrated and not be fooled by the high humidity levels. I checked my weather app and the humidity was at 30-something percent. Hadda laugh since that percentage would be considered disturbingly low in Hawaii.

Shared a more local contract job with the wife. I'd be gone about 5 days a week, working 3. Home for a few to do laundry n stuff, then back off again. 4 hours away, I'd live in my truck. But $4k/wk for 36 hours. 5500 for a 48hr contract.

She hasn't responded.

She's up in Wisconsin with some friends.

Buy a camper, rent a site for $500/mo tops and make some money. $2k/mo living stipend (calculated into the 4k/wk). I live my whole family on not much more, and could get by on less, especially if I'm not around doing dumb chit.

Is the job in Wisconsin?

Speaking of Contracts, where in Wisconsin is your wife? I have tomorrow off if Frank and Drafter want to subcontract their work.

"About as far as we are from Chicago, from Milwaukee" is all I know. Could be north, south, probably not east (she's scared of boats), or west.

Job is southern indiana/Kentucky area. Tons of campgrounds in the area. Most are $25-35/weekday and a little more for weekends but monthly rates around $30-40/day for electric, water, and sewer. Electric goes up a bit for the winter but water is shut off November to April so it's about the same.

Damn, looks like it may be a long recovery. I am pretty new here, but I think I am close to you, let me know if you need anything dropped off, picked up, buried in the desert, etc...

DED, it's gonna be a long hard ride.

Some of those things may be permanent. I'd expect the fatigue to start fading in a few weeks considering you were active to start. But joint pains, stiffness, and even the tremors may not. Especially if you got the diagnoses of viral meningitis from it.

Just keep doing what you can. Try to be up as much as you can tolerate, even if it's a chair vs the bed.

If you have a headache or neck stiffness that persists, get your ass back to the hospital. I've had a few patients who required an EVD and ultimately a VP shunt from it. I dont see it often, and like most things I only see the worst cases.

By mid-late October I'd hope you're back on your feet putting some miles under em. It's gonna be a while.
