I’m starting
out August working 10 days in a row ... which will pretty much take me to
mid-August, come to think of it. When I was young—ahem, younger—that kind of
schedule wouldn’t have phased me a bit.
But now I’m old
… er. Still, it’s all part of my plan: to make overtime and get my bills paid
down, so that when I qualify for full retirement, I can just sit back and go to
work writing.
A “full
retirement” in which I still need to make money may seem ironic, but what am I
supposed to do? Spend all my time playing with power tools in a wood working
shop? I have only so many fingers.
You know what retirement is really all about? Moving south. |
I know I'd be lost in a wood shop, and it would probably end badly for me!
ReplyDeleteI took a wood shop class ... not voluntarily, of course. Got an incomplete, but came through with all my limbs intact, so it's a win.
DeleteThat's what I keep telling Collin. Social Security probably won't be around by the time he retires.
ReplyDeleteIf some honest accounting was done, we'd discover it's not around now.
