Working on starting my own trucking business with my wife. She'll be my partner as her logistics skills are perfectly suited. We've taken a lot of steps already, but are going slowly, making sure we get it right.
First time I've been excited for something in a looooong time. That's great, Rick! You two have got this.

Really chuffed for you Rick! Also that you're approaching it in the right way.
And also a congrats to HWW too! "Nine steps in Gagne's model? I think you'll find that there are 40. Some would even call them a top 40..."

Ibby! That's so cool! Super congrats on both, as I know you've been working on that for a long many weeks now!
And that's really cool Sarky, I really liked your blog page today. I'm going to test the waters and try to go to the Baltimore comic con next week for a day. Its the first time in ages that I've been to one.

Very prudent to have it in your own name... just in case. Oh, I wonder if HWW meant millstones, and not Milestones. Our nationality just led to endless Brexit discussions.

It's always good to have an exit plan (thinks of all the unhappily married acquaintances I have...) Ah, Brexit. I wonder how many ham sandwiches have been confiscated at the border by now

I just discovered a charming little Colombian eatery only 5 minutes from where I live. The food is very good, and they even go the extra mile in the way they package takeout -- everything is arranged so that there's no danger of spillage.
