  • Between my current job (unlimited PTO) and my last (30 days PTO) I’ve had 30+ for the last 10 years.

    Last year I used 35+ days.

    A lot of it goes to smaller things. 1 or 2 days here and there. Few days camping, turn a 3 day weekend in to a 4 day, etc… It really can change how you use your time.




  • Combining calorie counting with intermittent fasting helped me lose 50+ lbs with relative ease. To support intermittent fasting I cut out evening snacks and breakfast, which gave me the 16:8 ratio (eating only from noon to 8 PM).

    The calorie counting helps set me up for future success as well since I now have a much better idea of what is healthy and what isn’t.





  • My dad is probably about the same age (currently 81)

    He didn’t touch a computer until the mid 2000s, and he just wanted to be able to email. It was a looooong journey to get him comfortable doing that.

    Since he got a smart phone he texts literally every day, has installed a number of apps himself, can mostly get new services working himself (he did Amazon Prime, with some mild hand holding).

    If anything, I call him more then he calls me!

    It’s doable :)
