Re: “I am having a hard time right now SLOWING down!!!!!!!!!!

I guess I am retired DE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”


Congratulations!!! That's huge!

I can't say that I've slowed down, though. I've got a long list of projects and I journal every day about my progress on them. Stagnating is the worst thing that can happen to a person (right clo?), so make sure that you stay productive - defining it in any way you wish. I consider myself productive if I read a book, shop for prepping items, target practice (not that I have any guns), build something, do yardwork and gardening, preserve seeds from the vegetables I've grown, study music, or do any of a hundred other things on my list.

Keep us posted on how you stay occupied. You might give me some ideas.

BTW, today I went to a "barn sale" and didn't buy a really nice used picnic table. It was only $30. I've spent twice that on the wood for the table I haven't even finished! Passing on the heavy duty table made me feel kind of ill..
