    Retired, but working at not doing too many of my wife's home projects. If I go thru too many of them and finish her projects for me, she'll find more of them for me to do. I don't want to work too hard in retirement, at least not on her projects.

    You know when I met you I could tell you were an an incredibly intelligent man....
    Bravo nicely done :D

    Thanks, well after 41 years of being married to her I should have learned something about how her mind works by now. :)

    Of course, she also has me figured out pretty well by now also.

    I was over 50 and living out of state for 25 years before I revealed to Mom that I worked so slowly on her projects because I figured out in my teens that there was no end to the list, so I might was well dwell on the parts of the ones I preferred. She was shocked and denied the endless list, of course, but also impressed, I think, that I had gamed her so long without her realizing. Pretty well nullified her complaint that I was so slow, which had started the conversation.

    I've been working too much lately it seems.

    Moving on to a new project, as my current project has been put on pause. Kinda like working 2 jobs. Crazy. Working from home it seems like I have not found that balance yet. But somehow, I've been able to manage this! :smile:

    We're starting to phase in workers on campus beginning on Monday. Only those that have to be there (technicians, those requiring to work on physical properties).

    I'm either gonna be phase 2 or 3. Phase 3 begins in July. Even then it will never be 5 days/week anymore.

    What's interesting to me is that there will be some, who've really demonstrated that they don't have to come in at all. Working remotely, and still get the job done.
