    Yep! Soccer this morning, got home and then started a second coat of urethane on some rocking chairs, then sold a shop vac, then went and started raking up sticks out of the yard. My problem is if I’m home I need to be doing something.

    I'm not really good with the concept of relaxing I guess. :confused: If I'm not working - I feel guilt about not working. :mad:


    The work years were all about cramming as much work as possible into every waking hour, turns out there was way more work than hours.
    I ended up just doing the minimum required to keep things going.


    I entered retirement with this tremendous optimism, finally time to get things done. :)

    It didn't take long to discover that I had treated my life like an interest deferred loan for the last 15 years - doing the minimum for years created a backlog of things to do of behemoth size and every job is an epic.
    There is no low hanging fruit & I don't have nearly the horsepower that I did years ago. :turtleride:


    I suppose you could say I spend a lot of time "relaxing" but mostly it is just dreading & putting off all the things to be done. :sadviolin:

    I have had many mowing misadventures over the years...;)

    Pro tips:
    1) Zero turn mowers make a hard turn if a rear tire suddenly goes flat.

    2) They don't glide at all if you hard turn over the edge of a bank.

    3) Flying off the lawn at midnight is quite an unexpected surprise.

    4) Crashing into the ditch after falling three feet kind of hurts...
