What Do You Do?
I received a handwritten note from Billy Bricks the other day with the comment, "You are leading an interesting lifestyle now." That gave me pause to think upon just what that lifestyle might be. From my viewpoint, the only lifestyle changes that I'm aware of are that I now do a whole lot more of the things I like to do and a whole lot less of the things I don't (like shaving).
And, then just last evening, two neighbors I'd not yet met visited to watch the sun set over the Peach Bottoms and one asked me, "Dave, what is it that you do?" I was totally unprepared to answer that question. Stunned by my inability to answer with so much as a modicum of aforethought, I blabbered on about being a full-time househusband or some such nonsense.
So, for the first anniversary of my retirement on June 27, I'm preparing an answer to the question and an analysis of my lifestyle. Both, of course, will be highly biased.
In the interim, however, let's just say that I'm blessed to be able to do whatever the hell I want to do and that's living the life of the mountain equivalent of a beach bum!
