Ok, seriously – where did 2021 go? 2022 is 2 months away and I still feel like I’m mentally in 2020. Life is weird 🙂 . Luckily not all of October was a strange time loop though.

As y’all know, I’m a super nerd. And part of being super-nerdy involves being curious about what in the world I would get up to in retirement with 24/7/365 freedom.

As this anniversary approached, I realized that I mention my nomad life in passing, but I’ve never dedicated a whole post to it. I never got into the nitty gritty details in one place, so that’s what I’ll be doing today! Continue reading “Celebrating 1 Year Of Nomad Life: Revelations And Answering Your Questions”

Before we get into the topic today, I have a quick aside. After I failed at my goal of not being afraid to ask for self-recognition for two years in a row, I’ve decided that the streak won’t continue. So for the first time, I will mention that nominations for the Plutus Awards are open and will be closing soon. Continue reading “The Month Of New Hampshire: Early Retirement Month 9 (June 2021)”
I’ve mentioned in most of my recent posts how amazing the food is in Portland, Maine – and I will not stop until it gets its due! Continue reading “My Favorite Restaurants And What To Order In Portland, Maine”
