I've been killing brain cells by the thousand since retiring. But my old company wouldn't leave me be. So, now I'm working from home on a geekbox about 5-10 hours a week on average, sometimes a bit more. The pay per hour is stupid good, just not much inclined to do more. I was a regulatory compliance engineer for Boeing, so they're just trying to get a data dump from my head before it degrades to a full time baby food processing function.
In retirement, you have to have a plan to keep yourself entertained. Build a routine. I find that I am busier now than I ever was when I worked.

Ted, I'd probably normally be busy as hell, but with my wife's mother laid up from a stroke and her caring for her, as well as covid hitting within a couple months after I retired, it just went to about nothing for quite a while. I've done some work on the truck and Jeep and some things around the house. Now that bird season is here, I'm going to run over to southern AZ to hunt quail. The dog is just recovering from what amounts to a rotator cuff injury. I want to do some jeep trail day trips. I'd like to take the wife, but I may just go myself. Seems like we're held in limbo. I hate it. I shoulda just kept working full time if I'd had known we were going to be tied down.

I would go wheeling and fly my wife in so that she would not have to use her vacation days for the drive to and from wheeling destinations. I took the Jeep through 26 states in the last year. Covid did not slow us down even though my wife caught covid.

Ancient coins and torc collection is my hobby. Recently, I came across the ancient history of Vikings and found it very interesting. I have collected some Vikings coins. These are antique coins of different materials like copper, silver, and gold-plated coins.
