I had a lovely day yesterday - and a lovely few days with DS. Both kids have gone to Ex this morning so I have the day to myself. DD is coming back tonight but DS is staying over. Then DS comes back tomorrow night and then we're going to go and help sis get her house sorted. He will then stay there a couple of days and who knows after that.
This year has been a lot easier than last. I'm even grateful for having a reset day to myself today. Feeling blessed - especially as its been warmer again... It was 24 degrees at my parents LOL.
Hope you are all having a restful, fun time and not over-doing it!Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality
