All the regular bills have been paid for the month. And my net worth including real estate and etc is about 10k short of a million and I feel pretty good about that personally but I think of everyone who has lost their lives or their job and etc due to covid. I worked hard and it paid off by this security but I'm privileged and lucky.  I still have another 10 years to work before I can retire unless we figure out something else for health insurance. Also I know that now that I'm in this age bracket, folks start dealing with big medical issues or other very unexpected things so I'm just going to try to carefully stay the course. I'm fortunate. This much I know. It's warmer here today than usual for this time of  year. I've got one more day (Monday) left of work for the year and I'm really looking forward to that break. It's been a tough year. I think I'm going to go out for a really nice walk before it gets too cold, possibly rains. 

The kids on back on home ground again. They have quite a few stories to tell. The GF had worked in apartment management and experienced three deaths during her short time (probably 18 months) the last two of them being in the last 6 months. They are back in flyover country and rents are half of what they were paying on the coast. I think that definitely brings my son a bit of relief to figure out their next steps in life. I guess I'm a bit suprised at how much I'm enjoying watching them figure out their next steps. We saw them on Sunday and brought them a few pieces of furniture we were going to get rid of and some homecooked food. I expected they would be eating fast food and pizza delivery during their move and travels. They were grateful and it warmed my heart that I could meet one of their needs. 

We've mostly had unseasonably warmer weather except for a early snow but things are about to change on Friday. I'm not looking foward to it but I'm as prepared as I'll ever be. Mostly when I walk, I start out a little chilly but by the time I'm on my way back home, I'm warm. 

I did order an adjustable stand up desk because working from home, my wrists feel it. I can't adjust my chair and don't want to get rid of my desk but I need an additional one. I expect to be working from home for at least another 6+ months.
