About Rod's word of the day
I have been mostly retired for about the last three years. Unfortunately, I am not doing what I want with my retirement due to the confines of caring for my invalid wife. Still, I am making the best of it. I do not have near as much time in retirement as I thought I would and sometimes wonder where the time goes. A lot of my time goes to blogging. I have blogged for about twelve years, now. My blog, called A Disgruntled Republican , takes a lot of my time. Much of that time is simply devoted to being informed. One thing I have found in retirement is time to read at a more leisurely pace. I have read National Review most of my adult life, but always was behind on the reading and never took the time to read the "other" parts of the magazine. I would read the news analysis and feature articles, but seldom read the humor column or the book reviews or movie reviews. I don't think I had ever read until recently the "Arts and Manners" section....
