Hello from clinic (lunch break!). My rapid test was negative this morning. I’m feeling 98% back to normal. I ran (on the treadmill due to a thunderstorm) this AM and it felt decent, though I think I backtracked a bit in my training by…

Thx COVID I had wanted to record a joint episode with Josh about his planning routines (much more minimal than mine, but they exist!) and our couples planning, but . . . COVID. I had even brought my podcasting microphone on our trip!! Unfortunately,…

NO MORE BOXES! With both of us feeling better, we seized the last remaining kid-free moments and finally got rid of the last lingering round of boxes in our house! We moved in April, so this isn’t too terrible but the final round was…

1- I finished (and loved) Lessons in Chemistry. SO GOOD. In 2022, I have read 22 books so far (tracked here!). I went through a total reading (and life) slump Jan – April, and then between May and now have read 15 of those…

I have been thinking a lot about the FI movement and how many people might be feeling now that their nest eggs are likely shrinking. (Hopefully temporarily, but still!) I have also been thinking about how much easier it has been to work with…
