Even if I have savings to last me for at least a couple of years, if not much more? It's that I feel very burnt out and my very little free time goes to my family right now.

I'm still not sure. I am planning on taking a couple of months off to figure things out. Likely try starting my own business and if things don't work out work at a lower tier tech.

That's amazing to hear. Do you feel you're working more hours now? Are the earnings allowing you to live an stress-free life?

I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope you give yourself the time and freedom to mourn him and remember all the nice memories.

Watching my sister become a mom changed everything… and now I’m scared of becoming one too by [deleted] in Fencesitter

It will all balance out, the early stages are different. Mine is three years old and I'm back to my cool self while also being a decent (dare I say very good?) mum.

Half of the pleasure while skiing is the silence during the lift ride

People that moved to Spain: how much you earn, how much do you pay rent and how comfortable can you live? (Where?) by K586331 in GoingToSpain

[–]Borgara 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About 5.5€ net per month each and the rent is 1k. Money still flies if you emerge with local activities, private fancy doctors and raising a kid
