Retirement

The thing that worried me most about retirement was that I would be bored. Work was always trying to push yourself to go 100 miles an hour all day long. Even at that pace there were days you lost ground. It became more task management than anything else. Can't get it all done so choose what has to be done and put the others on hold. Retirement has become a similiar exercise. There is so much to do it is tough to work everything into the day. Today is a good example. Started the morning by sitting down and paying bills and getting them ready to mail. I know, boring, but had to be done. Then off to the bank, credit union, grocery shopping then back home for lunch. After lunch I spent 4 hours watering the trees we planted last week. Got back in the house for supper at 5:30, ate that, now blogging. When this is done a quick shower and off to Galesburg and a stop at Budde's for a beer or two because it's buck off Monday. A 16 Oz PBR for a buck and a quarter is hard to beat. May watch a little of the national championship basketball game since my wife is from Lexington, KY we will root for the Wildcats. Tomorrow will be just as busy. Retirement- boring? No chance of that here. Don't know how I had time to work a job in the past.
