Sort of retired. Three day work week. Have mastered the four day weekend. Am considering an upgrade to a five day weekend. Enjoy working a little so that I appreciate my time off. Reading, garden, playing bass, qigong, cooking. Sound boring? It’s not.

A Man Called Ove
by Fredrik Backman

Thought-provoking (6/14/2026)

Thoughtful, relatable (by us old guys) journey inside a heart-felt but flawed character. Flawed as we all are and yet noble as well.

by Rachel Joyce

Inspiring (6/12/2026)

Aging, numbed by life events, Harold strikes out on an impromptu journey. Something many of us have contemplated but few of us have done.
