Day 22 of Retirement

With lots of time on my hands now, free to do whatever I please, I have discovered an exciting activity: sorting the newspaper!

As I read the paper, I carefully put each section face-down on the floor. After reading every section, I now have before me a stack of sections which magically fall into the correct order: Section A, followed by Section B, Section C, and so on.

I also remove all the advertising flyers and put them in a separate pile. I sort that pile, with the largest flyers on the bottom and the smallest on the top, so it looks neat and tidy. After stacking the sorted flyers on top of the news sections, I then re-fold the entire newspaper so it looks just like it did when it arrived.

Then I throw the lot into the recycling bin. Now the time has come to begin planning out the next meal, and my TV watching schedule for the day.

I am a lucky man.
