Retirement busyness

Retirement was supposed to be slowing down but it seems that since I began this retirement thing life has been speeding up. I have wanted to go to the creek and work on the house for a while but there seems to be something that keeps me here. I am on the board of a local non profit and two committees at church so there are periodic meetings. The non profit held a fund raiser recently and that took time. I am working on a backdrop for the stage in the children's worship room at church and HPU will celebrate homecoming this weekend. A couple of weeks ago was the Brownwood reunion where I drove the train in the parade. So I am staying busy. The trike is mostly done and has a few miles on it but I really should be riding more. I need to make a couple of repairs on it but haven't taken the time to do so. Oh, and the house needs painting and the camper needs some repair on the roof and... I think the list goes on forever. I am sure it will slow down someday.

Fall is here and we are enjoying the cooler weather. Nights have been in the 40's and days around 80 or sometimes cooler. It is much better than the hundred degrees or so of a month ago.

I do hope to post another story from the series I started on The Builder. Maybe I will find time to write that soon.
