Something very valuable in a positive way, is that for the first time in many years I managed to raise some money to fix a house that I need to remodel.

How wonderful, @syllem ! Achieving that financial milestone after so many years is a huge victory. You must feel so proud and excited about the possibilities ahead with the house remodel. It's such a rewarding feeling to reach a goal and see your hard work pay off in such a meaningful way. Cheers to many more successes in the coming year!
