Finishing most projects to 80-90% completion and then moving onto something else. Paying all of my bills by mailing out checks because I don’t like computers. Always trying to get my son to work less at work and more on pulling tractors. Farming pays the bills anyhow… Grandpa of two lovely grandkids.
