This is the start of my last four weeks with FSI and I expect the last four weeks of full time employment. It has been busy but with little time for the shop, I hope that changes once March is in the rear view mirror.
Some of the things taking time are installing a WiFi booster and cell phone booster in the Motorhome. I figured both would be pretty simple, an afternoon project with plenty of time for a whisky or two. As with most projects it hasn't gone as planned, lots of butt scratching and I'm still not sure either are working correctly.
I still haven't found time to put the greenhouse together but the other time killer is getting the spring/summer grow started from seeds. Like Guy Clark said: "There are only two things money can't buy, true love and homegrown tomatoes".
Shop things are mostly cleaning, repairing things for MsBubba, and getting all our knifes sharp.
It is time to hang up the monkey suit and move on to the next stage of life. I've lived a charmed life and have enjoyed each stage as it happened. I expect the same from this final stage.

Embrace retirement, you'll be fine.

Bob,
DeleteI'm lining up the ducks as I type. I'm leaving the option of working part time open but I expect it will not happen.
It is time to close the flying chapter and start a new one. I'm still a little uncertain what it will be but if it is anything like the proceeding ones it will be interesting and I hope enjoyable.
Once I'm 8 years in I might have a clue :-).

What king of wifi booster did you install? I bought a Microtik Groove to install on my boat but did not try it yet.
ReplyDeleteI am pretty sure you will enjoy your new life stage as much as the previous. Doing things for yourself, the way you want it (or the admiral wants it), is for me priceless!
Lionel,
DeleteI got the Alfa WiFi Camp Pro 2, mostly because the SIL said it worked. Anymore I tend to let him do the research. Most of the time he does good work. The house WiFi is pretty weak in the driveway, the new booster makes it work. The real test will come once we go somewhere and try a camp WiFi system.
I expect you are correct and I'm looking forward to giving it a go.
