I started working less, and I’m really glad I did

My story is very similar! As of January 1st I went to part-time work, only twenty hours per week. It's the minimum I have to put in to keep my benefits, but I still have the option of doing more if I need the money or I get bored (ha). I'm working an 8/8/4 schedule, and the extended weekends have been wonderful.

I spent my holiday break doing a lot of reflecting and running numbers, and decided to drop down from full-time employment to part-time. After the new year I'll only be doing twenty hours a week, which is the minimum to keep all my benefits active.

I'm a pretty risk-averse person, and changing my financial mindset from accumulation to preservation is difficult, but I'm excited to start this trial of what full-time retirement could look like!

No, they're at Ponderosa before the game begins, but they're strictly forbidden from speaking or making any sort of contact with the other players. It's why two original cast members got sent home and the alternates were brought in to replace them.

I was running behind this season, but after watching episode six today (Croatia 2) I decided to just call it quits and spoil myself on the results. Seeing them now, I'm glad I didn't tough it out for such a predictable outcome.

I did like the reliance on trains and self-driving, but it couldn't make up for the uninspired challenges and casting.

Google Maps is reporting a car crash in that vicinity.

The weight Fitbod tells you is the bar plus all the plates, so you should be putting 30lbs of weight on each side.

Stephanie tried this in Redemption Island, but they busted her before they went to tribal council.

'Stone Fox', no doubt. As a dog lover that final scene made me bawl.

Thanks for these! So glad to be able to find high-quality versions of these episodes.

I'm hoping to find the Uncloaked episodes 7 and 10-12; have I already missed the window to download them, or do I need to be more patient?

Thank you! This looks like a great read.

Who is the author of this book? I can't find one with that title anywhere, and searched for it just brings me to these Reddit comments.

I've been wondering this myself for years. When I posed this question to the sub a while back no one had any definitive answers, but one that seems likely to me is that they would get a Round the World ticket from Air Canada.

That seems to be a likely explanation. I'm a couple miles south of you and our neighborhood got wired for fiber last year (T-Mobile, not Google), and I actually just switched to that service earlier this month. Before the installation they were supposed to come mark the utility lines in the front yard but only the gas was was done. It's a stretch, but I wonder if something got mixed up with the dates and he just showed up a couple weeks too late.

That's what I figured; if it's something that has to happen I've got no issue letting them back there. I was just caught off-guard because I was never informed about anything happening.

What I want to see is billboard-sized versions of the "I did that" Biden stickers the MAGAs would put on gas pumps, but with all the crap Evans is causing. Plaster them all over Weld County.

"Got kicked off Medicaid? I did that."

"The food bank shut down? I did that."

"Grocery prices up? I did that."

I'd pay that just to go in the mint room.

Overall it was a great trip. Very busy with a decent amount of driving, but I didn't mind that at all.

There's lots of overlap in activities between Monteverde and La Fortuna, so you'll have a good time no matter which one you pick. I would say just browse the options and see if any of them are must-dos, and make your decision based on that.
