Hi @mark55man good to get the big project done. Go you on the continued weight loss. Hope that you feel better soon.mark55man said:another week over - big project finished as far as I am involved - there will be follow up but ironically although the follow up is bigger I will be less involved so that's good
I am still feeling a bit queasy and out of sorts - lucky its been a quiet few days. Will try and get out today - a bit stir crazy - thank goodness fr trashy literature and my kindle
In related news I have lost another kilo so I am now nearly half way to my next target of 200lbs
Not much to say really so will leave it there wishing everyone happy rest of summer holidays and hello Autumn2 -
It was good. Hope you are all set for part time work. That still feels a distant dream where I am financially - but it is nice to read of others getting there as it make it feel more doable.mark55man said:Thank you SH enjoy your holidayAchieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030
