I am envious on the km on your car. I live 45 miles one way from my mailbox and all provisions so walking is not an option.

I'm a Brit and have never been to Scotland (can you believe that but in my defence I left at age 21 so probably know France better than I know Britain) but I have a standing invite to my ex boss' beautiful place in Edinburgh. Next year, when I retire! Oh the plans I have - I can't wait.Treadershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613671137557939083noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5893269455295692105.post-13655610398749436222018-10-27T12:36:23.801-04:002018-10-27T12:36:23.801-04:00That's an interesting way to summarize where y...That's an interesting way to summarize where you are with your funds and goals for a month. Way to find a good compromise n no car. I really should challenge myself to drive less. I can't help the commute to work, but could combine more errands and walk more.

(Although I always thought you were almost the most fit person I know, only second to my best friend who runs marathons lol like 30-50k). 15 pounds is amazing - I get to 5 lbs lost and just stay there. You came back with money! We get killed on the exchange so buying books at home makes way more sense. As for your vehicle - well done. You decided you wanted one for freedom and it has certainly given you that, plus winters are pretty hard to bike around when there's snow so comfort thrown in. You can afford it so why not! We put about 7-8000 km per vehicle per year but that includes going to Nanaimo about once every 5 weeks with Buddy for his haircuts.
