Retired guy, working .

4,14,2022.

Long time no post. I'm not a blogger type. I just type .

Had the Covid Sept. 22  2021. Was a long bad trip. More then moderate pneumonia but mostly the brain Fog was the scary part.  That lasted months, and still have some lingering symptoms.  Speech and thoughts don't always line up. 

Retired but working part time as a stock clerk. Not a bad side hustle, but it's my only hustle and I'm fine with it.  Doesn't pay that much, but a guy living out of his van doesn't need much in the way of money.  Location is perfect, hours are perfect. It's also a physically demanding job which I like.  Get a nice workout in while earning a few bucks.    

I wake up 5am, leave my night parking spot and head to store, there in 5 minutes. I'm the only one on the parking lot.  I make coffee and do morning routine. I'm there a good while before manager arrives to open, but I like to be there ahead of morning rush.  This is where #vanlife shines. I'm home everywhere I park.  Store opens. I work my shift, usually 5 to 6 hours.  Out the door by noon-thirty. I'm a stones throw from my #gym and the local bike trail.  I need to get a bike rack on my van . Can't ride my bike if it's not with me.  The plan for this summer is work am Mon thru Thursday am. Gym and bike after shift. Fridays are for crabbing,  Saturdays and Sundays for selling my catch and misc. life activities.  Sounds good on paper. Let's see 👀 how this summer works out. 

My 3 year plan is work this side hustle and crab-fish commercially part time. When I turn 62 I plan on collecting S.S. and then doing crabbing as my main job. Plans........ 

Gym stuff. Still lifting regularly.  Been working #5x5 strong lifts for a while.  Was out 4 months because of having the Covid. Been working to regain to previous levels. 

#Vanlife is still the most awesome thing.  Love my #Roadtrek.  I don't see myself ever going back to a sticks house, but one never knows what can happen.  I'm 11 years this Aug, of 2022 as a #full time #vandweller.
