Finally back online..
It's been like two weeks since my last post and it wasn't without reason. First my daughter was a bit feverish when she had a long weekend off from school. Thankfully it remained at a runny nose and fever for two days so she mostly spent time on the couch under a blanket, watching tv and when it was time to go back to school she was all recovered.
I was a bit worried that I'd be next but even more so that her father was next in line, which is worse financially, lol. So if any of us would caught it, I prefer me being the one because of that. When thinking that, I had no clue what I was signing myself up for though, gosh, it's been a long time since I had fever for 5 days straight as well as feel that ill non-stop.
Not only did I have the fever constantly, but I was so congested that after a few days I couldn't breathe anymore. Luckily for myself, this time I was smart and started steaming from day 2 which avoided the congestion from getting stuck in my lungs etc, a huge difference with the last time I had this issue.
Hospital appointment
One thing that worried me all weekend when I was ill was the hospital appointment that I couldn't miss because of the doctor only being available every three weeks if you cancel. I had to go and it was a bit nervewrecking going there knowing that I could fall into endless coughing sessions with some bad luck and long waiting. It wasn't until after 45 minutes of delay (sigh, we were patient 2 of that shift and yet 45 mins delay!) that my throat started nagging me and I had to cough a little. I brought a mask in case this would happen.
It wasn't until the next day that I realized I was very lucky to have that appointment on Monday because on Tuesday, I had a sort of relapse and coughing was at its worst and I couldn't have attended the hospital if the appointment was on Tuesday, dodged a bullet there, lol. It took me 9 days to be sort of back to normal, glad that's behind me.
Goldbacks!
I think today is a great time to share my next 2025 Florida Goldback in line, the 2 Goldback note. After this, I only have the 5 Goldback note left and then I can move on to sharing my remaining silver rounds..
Out of the 2025 Florida Goldback series, I think the pirate lady is definitely the coolest design but honestly, all the notes are great. There isn't one that disappointed me when I received them.
The 2 Goldback note is a first timer I believe that Florida introduced the 2 Goldback notes as well as the 1/2 Goldback notes. I'm happy they did because it added another affordable collecitble to my collection.
The 2 Goldback note contains 1/500th troy ounce of 24k gold, it's not much but it's something. I think you buy these for the collectible value not the gold as it's so little and probably smarter to buy fractions of gold instead.
Here's the back, nice and shiny gold! Love it! See you next time with the best note of the series!
