Was walking back home from the gym which is 1.5 miles. Particularly tired on the given day with extreme leg ache. I wished for a knight in shining armor to pick me up and carry me home. Obviously.....

That was not going to happen. So I decided to take the bus home but didn't have any balance on my transit card. Figured I could BS the bus driver by taking the rear entrance but wasn't possible since he was keeping a close watch and asked me to come in front and tap my card. And when I did, there was actually 11 bucks on my card. You may say it was my absent minded nature, but I take it as a message saying ultimately I am my own knight in shining armor.

I’m having a really hard time with my changing body. 13 weeks, I don’t have too many bad side effects of pregnancy or anything so I consider myself lucky (no nausea ever etc) but I’m depressed at work, my skin is completely broken out and showing new broken face capillaries, and I’m not showing a bump yet so I just feel fat and big. I don’t know where this “glow” is but I look in the mirror and literally am grappling with not recognizing myself :( it’s been impossible to find any clothes too.

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.
