BillyJack Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 When the doctors pulled the plug on me working in 2019, I thought kool, I’ll just sit on my butt and collect. Now all,I think about is wanting to go back to work. Now the doctor tell me not to lift anything over 25 pounds, At one point last year I thought I’d get into exterior painting houses. I also thought about making small items and taking them to the flea market. My mind is a wandering today.. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Von Posted August 18, 2023 Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 Sorry to hear about your physical challenges. I miss work. I "retired early" because changes just made my job the wrong fit for me and the stress was ruining my health. Yeah, it's a huge privilege I have the option to not work and I certainly don't seek any sympathy. I miss the challenges of work and feeling like I'm contributing. Besides woodworking, I do a a good amount of volunteer work, but I'm still trying to get comfortable with this phase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyJack Posted August 18, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2023 I simply like to help. If someone local said they wanted to trim their house or do cabinets themselves and was looking for some guidance , I would gladly volunteer. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
