A friend of mine works for the state in Minnesota, she dropped me a text saying she has spent 8 weeks this yr in different places, I asked her if she was turning working from home into working from vacation. She did not respond to my text. LOL

Our neighbors did school (middle and high) from Walt Disney World last fall. I don't know if Dad was phoning in work or if he took vacation time. Knowing him, he probably did that on the up and up.
I hear ya. But it was severely impacting my health. My stress levels had gone through the roof and I was bordering on high blood pressure issues (after a lifetime of always running on the low side of normal). When we realized we could do it and still make our mortgage & insurance payments but cut expenses on other things (gas, clothes, food) it was a no brainer for us. Still had to give 5 weeks notice though, so that the TIAA-CREF could get all sorted out.
We debated using my in-laws timeshare membership thing to do that somewhere (Not WDW) but it just never really worked out cost and ambition wise.
That's another reason why I want to wait for 65
Took sammich break. Going to head back to the great hosta dig. Sorta disappointing that, other than a couple variegated ones, everything is the generic old school hosta lancifolia. Still worth digging I guess. Don't have to be gentle, the lancifolias would grow even if you just tossed them on ground, as long as they got some water.
That's why Wifey is waiting until 65 -- I'm on her insurance, so I'm bolting next June. I will have officially worked the longest at my friends' business (16 yrs and 3 months).
Ain't that the truth. I got some dug up hostas from someone a couple of years ago. They sat in a cardboard box for a month or more before I could plant them. A few of them were molding but I planted them anyway and I'll be damned if 95%+ of them survived and are thriving.
You and lew now just sit around naked M-F??
The 3 things that could survive a nuclear holocaust? Cockroaches, hostas, and..........kudzu.
A-a-a-a-a-a-nd now the reports are coming that there are actually tons of lumber out there.....the mills have been producing all along. Market is falling off like crazy. There are still transportation issues, but it's not like there was actually a shortage.
Capitalism at its finest.

Local place told me about a month to two months ago that lumber was available but Canada and the US govt were in a peeing match and Canada wouldn't push what they had across the border.
Based off of pics on FB, Lew doesn’t own a shirt.
