About me

I’m an almost retired guy, slowly figuring out how I want to spend my time once retirement finally kicks in.

I’ve always enjoyed building and fixing things, and lately I’ve started revisiting old hobbies while also trying out completely new ones. Time is still somewhat limited, but that’s part of the process — experimenting, learning, and seeing what sticks.

My goal is simple: by the time I actually retire, I’ll have found a few things that truly keep me curious and engaged.

This blog is where I document that journey — projects, ideas, lessons learned, and probably a fair share of trial and error along the way.
