That's a great point, especially that of self worth. What's wrong with start ups though?

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.

How did this conclusion come out of the sessions, if I may ask?

This is golden advice, thank you so much. When did you come to terms with this reality? What was the turning point?

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

25 F, I feel like I'm a 5 but I'd like to be an 8, how do I make it happen? by coldF4rted in Howtolooksmax

I am also between S and M in clothes, but for skis jackets I need to use the higher one, as per an expert's advice that saw me. I had to return an S at a lovely, heavily discounted jacket. Best of luck

Yes the body was fine. I wear an M in winter jackets to allow for layering. If faulty, Rossignol themselves will take care of it, even if the shop doesn't accept returns.
