Sorry I haven't been around much lately, but I was off in my RV, doing a retirement trial run.
I took 3 months off this summer to see what life would be like with no deadlines. I learned that I have an almost limitless ability to sit and stare at beautiful scenery for hours at a time. I never got bored, never ran out of things to do and never once did I miss anything or anyone connected with w*rk.
I do find that my habit of procrastination does not improve when I have more time to do the stuff I keep putting off until I have time to do it. Seems on a motivation-meter, I'm about at a zero. So, I have to learn to set artificial deadlines: like inviting someone for dinner in order to kick-start the housework.
I also found out that driving an RV is kind of an expensive hobby. The gas prices aren't so bad, but it seems that some major thing breaks down every time I move the thing.
All in all, it was a good summer and I have informed the powers that be that I'm out of here as of May 1st. This will give me a bit more time to build up the RV repair fund.
