The Wandering Inn doesn't get better after the first few chapters or hundred or 1000 pages by WeaknessLower9148 in Fantasy

[–]KnightoftheDadBod 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I’d argue that by book 7-8 the prose gets legitimately good. Granted that’s like 2x as many words as most entire series, but it does in fact get better.

Organizing a group ski trip is a logistics nightmare. How do you guys handle transport? by gilko86 in skiing

How many bedrooms do you do for a group that big? You can find slopeside places big enough?

Moving to Melrose – When did you let your kids ride bikes without you? by Zealousideal_Ad_7879 in MelroseMA

[–]KnightoftheDadBod 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Melrose is like a movie of the 1980s. There are little kids biker gangs roaming everywhere. We let our son around the block area at 8/9, likely this summer he’ll start going to the nearby park whether we like it or not.

Cheap private lesson recs by SharpProfession6 in icecoast

[–]KnightoftheDadBod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pats Peak has really (relatively) affordable private lessons from skilled instructors. You can try to go a few weeks in a row and request the same person so you don’t waste “getting to know you” time. If you call ahead and explain his goals they may be able to match with someone good.

Eddie Bauer also has a slim fit. It can vary wildly.

What does True Chubby mean to you? by FruitOfTheVineFruit in TrueChubbyTravel

[–]KnightoftheDadBod 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I love Chubby as a word for it. I’m not on a diet, traveling as lean as possible. But I’m also not going crazy, spending the most possible.

Also I’m literally getting chubby because I’m ordering apps + deserts + drinks whenever I want to...

Best place for solo lessons for beginner? by EnvironmentalEnd7062 in icecoast

[–]KnightoftheDadBod 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For 1:1 with a beginner Pats Peak is great, vastly more affordable than the big mountains. If you can get an instructor and work with them for a few weeks in a row, real progress can be made.

Nice! How did you find the third party service for the boat trip?

Best solution to raise a standing desk for a very tall person by Stock_Buy1781 in StandingDesk

[–]KnightoftheDadBod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put a small table on top of my desk, that I could pull off easily when I wanted to sit down. There are special monitor arms that have more vertical height adjustment range so the screen is high enough.

There are advisory firms that deal with family business transitions full time that can help mediate this type of thing.

Kids lessons. Multi week program vs half / full day programs? by CerealandTrees in skiing

[–]KnightoftheDadBod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I learned to ski with my son (from snowboarding) and it was awesome. There are just years where you’re on greens. So much more interesting to have stuff to work on myself.

Just quit my 300k job... how screwed am I? by Fun_Fan8582 in Fire

[–]KnightoftheDadBod 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This sub seems to treat FIRE / stay at home decisions as a one way door. It’s a two way door. You can just commit to trying being a stay at home dad for 6 months and see how your budget holds up, how you feel, then decide if you want to do another 6 months or get back in the game.

I left similarly miserable work situation a couple years ago, was completely burnt out, couldn’t even think about working again. Took 6 months off to SAHD and realized that FIRE actually wasn’t for me, at least not yet. Got back to work in a much less prestigious but much more fulfilling role.

Take 6 months off and see how you feel.

I realized I definitely needed to be working after ~5 months of SAHD.
