Recent job change, relocation, and having to rent in a different city from my family until we can arrange moving the family have necessitating keeping to a tight budget. I use a fancy version of "envelope budgeting" (using YNAB) where every dollar coming in is assigned. Some categories a pretty...

Had an opportunity to get my long time group together in person on a visit home. It was great to get together in person, but transitioning from an online game to in person fell flat. We still enjoyed our time together, but my lesson learned is that when you have been playing complex campaign...
