April was a study-heavy month, focusing on the Series 65 exam. Work and skating filled the gaps, a bit like mastering tricky slopes in Snow Rider. Rent’s going up slightly after five years, but a 10-month lease renewal felt right, avoiding double rent with the house build in 2023. Spending was on track at $1,228, with household costs and groceries taking the lead. Even managed some ice time amongst the studying.
