Still sinking in, body

retirement quote
Photo is from a 2010 post. Source unknown.

When i say retirement is still sinking in, the sinking in is timely and timeless.

Timely because it’s brand new in 2026.

Timeless because getting and staying physically vibrant is as important now as it was three decades ago.

When you let the timelessness of physical vibrancy sink in, it reminds me physical wellbeing is crucial, every day, day after day, for a lifetime.

Like i said, let that sink in, forever.

Rest is a superpower

Rest generally means sleep.

Rest also means taking a break. Any duration. Any time.

Rest might last a relative lifetime. Say, retirement from working.

Rest may also be defined as quitting.

Blogging resting will be here soon.

Today is Sunday, one of my favorite physical rest days.

Got pulled over

Roughly five mile bike ride one way. Photo: Crosswalk to Magic Kingdom.

Bicycled from home to Magic Kingdom.

Parked the bike where i always do.

Caught the eye of Sherry from Disney Security.

It’s her duty to ask questions when she sees anything that doesn’t seem normal. She asked, “Are you a working Cast Member?”

We had a nice conversation. She took my employee ID number (which i support). She let me go on about my day.

Note: Asked her if she knows Greg at the Contemporary-to-MK security bag check. She does. Asked if she knows Amy and Alonzo at DU Security. She does. Told her i just spoke to Amy. Sometimes, a big place can feel like Family, even as a Disney retiree.

So much things

Halloween, 2014.

Decision fatigue generally lasts a lifetime. If Disney ran your life, you’d fix this right away.

So much things:

  1. A decade of Disney retirement.
  2. A 100 episode podcast with 95% sitting in the vault.
  3. A week away from starting prolific blogging’s 16th year.
  4. Eye health updates.
  5. Spring in our yard.

Stamina and strength

Starting your own business from nothing requires stamina and strength.

Thank goodness i went into it with plenty of physical stamina and strength.

You gotta do the reps…

Every day.

All day.

Count yourself lucky if you get any sleep.
