Sunday's lower energy level was not on this morning's horizon; exercises went well. However, instead of projects, I took time to assess my four weeks of retirement; took time to email some of my CMU colleagues, and then to think about a direction for the next month or six weeks.
I walked around the house, inside and out, upstairs and down, and detailed 16 projects (apart from the regular yard work and ordinary clutter control and housekeeping). I spent time writing a few words describing what I wanted to do, and when I wanted it done. This sounds far too like the work of an administrator, but so be it! I also derived a list of the projects to hang on our refrigerator, as a reminder.
Later in the afternoon I started one of the projects -- tidying up my basement tools and hardware. It'll take some time, but just an hour and half began to yield visible results.
Friend John stopped by after work (his work) to loan a Blu-Ray version of the HBO series Band of Brothers which I'd not seen before, and some workout music to keep me on track. Looking forward to watching them.
The 80% chance of rain that was forecast for Big Rapids never materialized, so after dinner I watered portions of the lawn that I reseeded this spring, hoping we do not have a typical season that leaves everything drying out and brown.
We shall see.
