Its almost therapy. I rolled up the boat building part of the business, the last kid went off to college and I got the carryall and changed my diet all at about the same time. I really have not a lot else going on.
There is a chair in the living room that I use to sit on, take naps and surf the net on my laptop. As I sit there, I start thinking "Your getting old, you have nothing going on and this old man's chair is sucking the life out of you."
So I get up, go into the garage and work on the truck. Get really angry and frustrated. Invariably break something I'm working on. Now instead of just doing 'A' I have to completely rebuild 'B', 'C' & 'D'. I've forgotten what 'A' was. But the best thing? I've also forgotten that damn chair!
In the end, when I finally get the current project under control, I actually feel really good. Until I go test the truck and realize, I never did fix 'A'.
And its fun to write about.
So again, Thanks! I'm not just annoying everyone. :)
