These posts are the stories of my life. I am an early-retired former tech sales guy who was widowed in 2018.
My life is intentionally centered around fitness, minimalism, frugality, and spending time with my dogs. I am a contented, introverted loner. My life used to be much different.
I live in Raleigh, blog, swim, workout, walk my dogs, read, draw and fix stuff.
Lately I’ve been focused on a new workout routine. For the past 7 years I focused on gymnastics and swimming workouts. My new routine returns me to functional fitness. It is be a more well-rounded program using kettlebells, a suspension trainer and bodyweight exercises. I’m stoked to change things up. It’s time.
Writing this blog helps me work through the thoughts swirling in my head to better understand the world and my place in it. I write to challenge my mind, test ideas and gain perspective through different lenses. Sometimes I write just for fun. Other times I write because it helps me clear out my head. I hope that at least some of my essays help, challenge, inform or entertain my readers.
