Boredom is a universal experience

I can't remember the last time I was bored. There's too much to do.

In many ways, boredom is a modern luxury.

Exactly what their 'study' says.

You ain’t kidding.

I’m 80 and have so much to do I have to pay people to help. I thought I would slow down in my 60’s. Did that happen? Never. I even had MORE to do. I have accepted that I will probably be polishing cars or shoveling rocks when I finally join the choir invisible.

Same here. I haven’t known boredom since I was a kid in the 1970s. Way too much to do and not enough hours in the day! Also, that stack of unread books gets larger and larger.

*******************************************************************

My wife’s been in the hospital and now “in patient” physical rehabilitation for the past two weeks, with three more weeks to go. Those are extremely boring places (for both of us). I’m down to about twelve hours per day visiting.

I get up around 6:00 A.M., see the kids off to school, go to the nursing home, where the rehab is, come home around 3:00 P.M., see that the kids eat or bring them with me and we have dinner with my wife.

Pretty decent food at rehab and only $5 per person for visitors. Better than my cooking, for sure. Take the kids home, go back to sit with wife, go home around 9:00 P.M.
