Time for a cheering interlude with our new friends from week 4! Where do you go, what do you do, consume, buy, and/or talk about? Are they a help with getting some perspective on the house problem that cropped up last week? Can they recommend a contractor, de-clutterer, or buyer of collectibles?
Also let us know how you did last week, with or without goals!
