Time to start banging out a Tuesday tune.

In my second year of retirement, I’ve switched back to breaking down the day into segments and filling them up like I did when working. Things like blocking out times for exercise each day. I make sure to touch each of my hobbies every day.

Filling my daily to-do list to the brim, just to challenge myself to see what I could get done. And now I need to get back to creating more posts each day.

I’m flexible on my start time each day. Somewhere between 2-5 am is normal. And I’ll go till 10pm or 1am at night. Yeah, I’m still not sleeping much most days.

Getting a good focus and being at peace with myself, while difficult some days it’s something I try to regain even as the day or situations get away from me.


Random Thoughts of the Day

  • Helping a friend isn’t something that needs thought, just action.
  • Now I know why their MAGA hats are Red. Have a good day, comrade.
  • I wish I could charge my batteries as easily as I do with my cameras.
  • Ah, it’s Tariff Tuesday. Is this what will bring prices down? Or was that the stock market you meant?
  • I switched from taking my meds with dinner to first thing in the morning. That way I don’t forget when I skip dinner.

I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
