Thanks for checking out my journal delay!
Interesting info about unions! For some reason I thought they worked in a similar matter in all of Europe.
Wishing you a good 2024 too!

Hey, Aspirant! (And others too!)
So nice of you to ask. I’ve been thinking about you and the other forumites too. I wish your family is well.
I've been busy and not at all ERE lately. A lot has happened in the world and events have not affected us in a good way.

As covid is easing up here, the society is opening up and my employer is requiring everyone to return to the office.

Nice to hear you're doing fine!

I'd vote for you (if I could).
How are you and the kids doing?
I'm really envious of your wife's work arrangement. You seem to have a very solid relationship together and with your kids.
All the best to you.

Re: Vaikeasti to ERE - Family Journal
Thank you for your responses Aspirant and ertyu!
Those are some really good questions ertyu. Some I've been thinking about (the worst case scenario mostly...) but not really given it enough focused effort.
I'd say, that If I'm still in this same situation a year from now, I'll have failed myself ...

Your situation sounds really good! I also think it's better to have things simple regarding ownership. I really admire the way you seem to just get an idea and go with it. Keep safe and best regards to you!
