We are moving to the area in July/August timeframe. I’m currently pregnant and considered high risk due to hypertension, previous still birth, PPROM risk, and incompetent cervix risk.

I have tricare select. Referrals not needed.

My MFM has documented that I cannot go more than a week without care/being seen. She gave me a list of MFMs that have her speciality’s that she thinks would be a good fit but unfortunately couldn’t find a colleague she knew personally in that area.

To answer this question in advance: no, we cannot delay the move - so we moved it up to make the transition easier.

I’ve called multiple practices who’ve said they won’t take new patients right now. And I’ve called multiple MFMs who’ve said that I would need to get a local referral first and to get established with an OB and that anyway, they’re too full. I’ve called my insurance company who states a referral is not needed at all and that that’s incorrect and they were unsurprisingly unhelpful.

Has anyone that has moved to the area in a similar situation been able to find care without having to wait a month to get into an OB appt to get referred?

What hospitals do you recommend for labor/delivery considering the high risk situation?

And just in case there’s any I may have missed in reaching out to, what practices do you recommend?

And honestly, any information you can provide would be great. I’m at my wits end with this 😬

I live in Jacksonville, FL. My house is over 100 years old, I bought it in October last year. No active WDO on inspection, but signs of previous damage. I called Terminix out for a quote and I have since seen mixed reviews, but…

They quoted me $254 a month for 60 months to do subterranean and dry wood termite prevention (liquid and bait treatments), put down a vapor barrier in the crawlspace, treat the crawlspace and attic with borate liquid, clean the attic (major previous rat problem), remove and replace attic insulation, plus spray down an antique cabinet which has active termites. $254 is a lot of money!

I do think it’s clear that the treatments are needed, I’ve been down in the crawlspace and it is moist and there is some mold growing.

I’m just a single lady trying not to get bamboozled here. Any thoughts/comments/suggestions are much appreciated.

SOLVED Thanks everyone! Going to Sensible Recycling right now. They seem great.

I know it's against the rules to ask here, but the people on FB marketplace are completely hopeless about giving any information about the laptops they list, so that website is useless for someone who wants to buy one. And eBay has almost nobody from Jacksonville. So is there some online marketplace that actually works where people buy/sell stuff?

I just need a marketplace that will allow me to sort for these five things: 1. RAM: Two options. Option A: ≥ 12GB RAM if more can be added later. Option B: ≥32GB RAM if no more can be added later. 2. Screen size: ≥15 inch. 3. Screen resolution: xxxx × xxxx where at least one of the xxxx is ≥2000. 4. Keyboard has a numpad. 5. Price: <$1000.

Literally I cannot find a marketplace for Jacksonville that lists this basic info, and I would buy the first one that fits the criteria today as soon as I see it. But the problem is that FB marketplace doesn't have sorting by any of these things, and even if they did, people don't list it.

tldr: There must be some decent marketplace for the Jacksonville area, or is there none? 😞

Edit: I meant a used laptop. They are just a better deal in general.

Hi! If you’re a community and mutual aid lover, we are a small but mighty group that meets on Mondays at Riverside park in five points at 5pm est. we bring food, supplies, toiletries, clothes we no longer wear and contraceptives and we have a meal with whoever needs it. We have plant based options as well. If you have extra or a need we’d love to meet you.

Thanks for reading- have a kind rest of your day!

I'm considering going back to stripping. What are the best clubs to work at in Jacksonville? I will be having to drive in from out of town and want to work somewhere nice. If there are better options outside of Jacksonville, where do y'all recommend?

I don’t know many people here.

Theatre has always been my passion and starting something from scratch; finding small rehearsal spots, building a play-team and eventually performing to a medium crowd has been a long time dream.

Just thought I’d give it a shot here and maybe find some like-minded individuals to brainstorm with on what we can do.

Feel free to join the newly created discord channel if you are interested!

My husband and I are in our 40s and trying really hard to meet like-minded people to hopefully be friends with. We're pretty liberal, open minded, can talk just about anything including but not limited to: travel, history, gardening, music, and useless random facts. We're both nerds, gamers, vote blue, and bi.

If you are also going to the concert and would like to hang out ahead of the show, drop us a line. We got floor tickets, because I am a huge fan with a crush on Brent since his long hair days.

No MAGAs please.

Hey so I am needing guidance from music artists to show me the way on how to make rap songs. I want to experiment with hiphop in this genre, NOT drill or trap but classic hiphop 90s, y2k east coast/south vibe. I've contemplated many times in wanting to make songs to hear for myself at the very least, not interested for mass appeal but in pointing out a message that I want to hear in lyrics.. I want to meet producers and emcees alike and hopefully achieving a mentor for my journey. I want to make full albums with various topics therein. If not in the Jacksonville area then anywhere! Do let me know.. Any direction is greatly appreciated. My DMs are open let's talk. Thanks.

Groundwork, I am 22 with just a high school degree and am located on the southside. I have over two years of experience in Restaurant management experience and around 3-4 years of overall supervisory experience. All of these positions have given me skills and experience in scheduling, inventory, data entry, lots and lots of customer service. But I am trying to get out of the restaurant industry and preferably customer service in general. I do enjoy working with computers so maybe more data entry but anything works really, I want something more stable, consistent 40 hours and a set schedule.

Anyway, does anyone have any advice? Specific companies to look at or even staffing/temp agencies to go through?

Edit : I feel like I need to clarify, this isn’t me looking to jump into a new long term career, I know what I want to do with my life (no matter how outlandish it may seem or how hard it is to accomplish). I just simply want a job in a new field because the restaurant industry has burnt me out, constant stress, bad sleep, horrible working environments etc. I just want something new, not a new long term career, just something new.

It will be my first time at the venue. I got the project view suite because I’m old and need to sit lol.

Does anyone have any recommendations? I'll be in Jacksonville on Monday and I'm looking to get some.

Hi, I am moving to Jax in about a month. I am a single 31 year old male.

Born and raised near San Marco. From 1995 to 2007.

Where should I live? I have looked at Neptune, Jax, and Atlantic beach.
San Marco sounds like it would be cool.
I am open to living anywhere really. My place of employment would be near St John’s Town center.

I would like to be walkable to a bar or the beach.

Massive Jags fan! Would like to join a community and get involved. Excessive/run/fight clubs. Sports league. Trivia nights. Big karaoke guy.

I still have some friends here but most are married so lifestyle differences.

Does anyone have any suggestions for the best guacamole in JAX can be store bought or restaurant.
