About My Retirement Diary

We cannot understand what we don’t measure. (paraphrasing Lord Kelvin, 1883)

I believe I can design a “better” retirement if I periodically “measure” my retirement. Or at least that is my working hypothesis.

I intend to use this diary as a tool to publicly investigate that hypothesis.

About the format of My Retirement Diary:

The first entry in my diary was created when I woke on the first day of my retirement, 12/22/2022. That entry will be at the bottom of the page. The most recent entry will always be at the top of this page. My Retirement Diary will be updated episodically. 

Regarding grammatical errors:

It is my intent to record the day’s events and/or my thoughts as expeditiously as possible; grammar is not a significant priority. So be grammatically forgiving.

Regarding privacy issues:

I have endeavored to protect the privacy of those mentioned in this diary by omitting surnames. If you feel that there is a privacy breach, please let me know and I will promptly make amends.
