Of course I failed to and still fail to acknowledge that every day in my life now is not a Monday, nor any other day of the week. Now days, every day is nothing but another day of retirement. And that is fine. But with every day holding the same significance , trying to use excuses for my slothly ways based on traditional working man excuses falls flat. Again, that's okay. I just invoke one of the new rules I have developed because of retirement. There are no rules now, I'm retired. ............ Yeah, I am good with that.
Does this mean I no longer have any obligations and duties? Of course not. I have just adjusted my excuse index to reflect my new station in Life. If there is work to be done, in case of an emergency or even just because I do not feel like doing it, there needs to be a work around work that will be there the waiting for whenever, so why push so hard? After all Life is now but a really long weekend.
Nothing like enjoying the guilt of not doing what you promised yourself you would do.
Keep it 'tween the ditches ...................................

Yup
For sure. Tuesday was the only important day in my life as it was garbage pickup day. Now I'll have to find a new reason to know the day or date.
Every day is Saturday.
You got that right - I have a shed to move...maybe next week.

Like someone said -- flying it's easy -- it's just falling directly to the ground... and missing. :)
as long as every day isn't Wednesday
May I ask this question?
I beg me a pardon, and have nothing against you deleting it if you see it unfitting or something.
But, you know who keep bragging about rise of fatique and growing ignore of "news about Ukraine" -- easy to see why that is so important.
So.
Can you give some feedback on that?
To all my older than dirt internet buds- You all warned me about retirement and now I get it. Fighting it is useless when there is so much more trouble to get in.
One from Ukraine - News about Ukraine - I cannot speak for others and their "Ukraine Fatigue". For myself, my lack of voicing my horror, my anger, my complete feeling of helplessness over Ukraine is not because of fatigue. I read, listen, and watch many stories every day about the war in Ukraine. For my own sanity, I refrain from commenting because, other than donating to the cause, voicing my outrage is only affecting my mental health and does nothing to help Ukrainians.
Thank you very much.
