    Here is a link that has a table that breaks down sick leave hours into time served.

When I retired I gave back 3 days of sick time just to make sure I didn't make a mistake.

    Dang, I'm still negative for the year, barely.

    At least I'm back above the F Fund.

    As far as the roller coaster ride has gone, yesterday was just a little hill.

    That's true. It's just that I want it to make up its mind -- plus I want to get back up to zero for the year.

    I'm still below my 2017 finish, but I'm inching closer. Anything close to 1% for the day will push me positive again for the year.

    Looks like the S Fund mostly made back what it lost yesterday. The C Fund not so much.

    Interesting on what happened in my account over the last 3 days. I'm 100% "S" fund and on Tuesday it made .44% ($920.72), Wednesday was -.44% ($917.17) and Thursday was.44% ($917.96) That is pretty flat. Maybe yesterday would have been a good day to get out. Tariff talk not looking good for the market this morning.
