@bravelygo Good, how are you???? Brb gonna go follow you on my personal Insta because two accounts is too much for me to handle 😂

@richandregular As a Duke fan, I can’t even be mad (helps my bracket out too because no one had NC state going this far 😂)

[Erin | Reaching for FI @reachingforfi]

@MattLaneWrites 👀👀👀 I don’t know how quickly I could read it but definitely interested!

[Erin | Reaching for FI @reachingforfi]

@cFIREsim Can confirm we haven’t been on THAT much 😂

[Erin | Reaching for FI @reachingforfi]

@MattLaneWrites Inquiring minds want to know 👀

[Erin | Reaching for FI @reachingforfi]

@MattLaneWrites The fucking nerve of those emails 🙄

@picksuppennies 2024 is the first year in a few we definitely don’t have the cash to max out Jan 1

@richandregular The price difference on gas between the DC Costco and everywhere else near me was worth the price of membership alone and years later I’ve never looked back 😂

@Being_Melody I hate (and am bad at going to bed early enough to enable) getting up early to workout first thing, but man the later it gets in the day the more unable I am to summon the willpower to make myself do it. Noon workout classes are about the latest I’ll (somewhat) reliably do 😅

[Erin | Reaching for FI @reachingforfi]

@MattLaneWrites Oof that’s like the opposite 😬

[Erin | Reaching for FI @reachingforfi]

@wisemindmoney Should’ve painted your face too 😂

[Erin | Reaching for FI @reachingforfi]

@sarahdcady Oh no, Sarah! I’m so sorry! 💔

[Erin | Reaching for FI @reachingforfi]

@FieryMillennial Ugh do I have to tell you congratulations again?? 😘

@wisemindmoney My only saving grace is that my toes are usually still too damn cold in my cozy fuzzy socks so I do also wear slippers much of the time.

I’m reluctant to look at sticky stair treads for fear of what they’ll do to the wood buuuuuuut…
