Working my but off still. Cut all expenses that aren't necessities. Wife went back to work earlier than planned. Have about six months of emergency fund put away, looking to build that to a years worth by September. Can't predict what my job situtation will be like for rest of the year or how long this market will be like it curently is so I'm trying the best I can to be ready for the pessimistic scenarios if they play out.
Promised the kids if they eat well and sleep well and both grow to 48 inches we would go to silverwood in the USA for a weekend. Looks like we'll be camping lots instead. We have the gear, they love camping and Dad being able to pay the mortgage if I get laid off for an unknown duration is more important than a vacation.
