Retirement date - May 31. This will be my first free summer in 50 hears! Jaysus.....
I can't wait! Congratulations. You will absolutely love it!
June 7th for me. I worked on my parent's farm until ~30 years ago so I sort of had summers off in those days - some chunks of summer anyway. But I'm sure looking forward to having the full thing free.
That will be last day for me too!!! Wanted to retire in this time of year!! Enjoy my friend!!!
@@keithholloway5272 How's it feeling? Guess what you don't have to do tomorrow? 🎉🎉🎉
Guess what you don't have to do tomorrow? 🎉🎉🎉
Great part of retirement is you make your schedule and take a day off whenever you want. Enjoy your retirement, Buzz.
I'm loving it. My new boss, the one I see in the mirror, has been pretty lenient with me! Buzz
@@BuzzRetirementGarage lol 😂
Thank you for the tour, Buzz. I look forward to seeing the progress you make. Keeping busy in your yard is good for you, gives Mrs. Buzz a little break, and you'll feel proud of what you accomplish.
She doesn't work in the garden or yard. It's all me, myself and I.
@@BuzzRetirementGarage Yes, she can have a little time while you're outside. It's gonna look great, Buzz.
I can't wait to spend some time in my yard too Buzz. Built this house 23 years ago and it is failling apart just like you said, never time to do anything. But...yesterday was our 31st wedding anniversary and it was a pre-planned appointment and I turned in my paperwork to retire. July 1st is the date, but June 28th is last scheduled day. 32 years and it's a wrap. So relieved and happy.
Congratulations
So you planned on turning your retirement paperwork in on your wedding anniversary? Classic! Hurry up July 1st!
@NoPurpleCar Yep. We both worked that day because our vacation doesn't start until Friday when we go outta town. Plus there was a long list of connections for that day that made it the right time to do it.
I work 6 days a week. Single, no "honey do" but me. I am furiously working to pay off my house. No big projects until that is done. I called TODAY to find out about the payoff, since its pretty low right now. In September my homeowners insurance will be due, and I want to pay it off before that. Because I want to drop the flood policy that they FORCE me to have. FEMA rezoned my house last year to a flood zone and so the insurance more than doubled. My mission is to pay off my house and be rid of that. I can then shop for decent homeowners insurance instead of the one that the mortgage company bullied me into getting. But the kicker to this story is that in September my escrow will be almost 10k. At the rate I am paying the payoff will be 15k. But they will not deduct the escrow from my payoff total!! I have to pay the whole thing off, and then in 30 days they will refund my 10k. Totally ridiculous!! I will never EVER get sucked into having a mortgage EVER again!!!
That a crazy way for them to do that. That flood zone change probably impacted a lot of people. Good luck! Buzz
Great Property.
Take your time with all your projects.
Make sure you and the wife enjoy the great summer traveling weather.
Every day is a great blessing.
Slow and steady with the projects.
Enjoy your summer.
Agreed. So nice to be retired!
Have a good summer, you and the Mrs. Don't
forget to take time to cook those drumsticks. the work will be there waiting, so take time to just enjoy.
We do take time for sure. Thank you.
Wow, you have your work cut out for you. Glad you have the back for it 😉 Can't wait to see it in the fall. Good Luck!
You can help.
Enjoy your retirement. You will get to that A.
I am enjoying every minute and yes, I'll get there.... eventually. Lol
You have a beautiful place Buzz, looks very peaceful. Gardening is therapeutic, enjoy! 😊
Weeding is not therapeutic. Lol
I could not tell from the video, but it appeared to me that some of your dead or dying trees were ash trees. A few years ago, all ash trees in our area were killed by the Emerald Ash Borer. If you have living ash trees that you want to preserve, imidacloprid is the key. It's a liquid soil drench that you apply once in the spring. Bayer's product is expensive, but there are other manufacturers that make it more economical to treat them. I have two large ashes that were saved by the application, Great video. Envious of the time you have to do yard work, but I am glad for the excuse of insufficient time to tackle my garage.
I finally got back there and used my plant ID app and most of the dead or dying trees are American Elm. Same as the Ash, I think something gets to them. Hopefully you'll get time to knock around the yard soon. Buzz
Looks like you have plenty to do for the summer! I’m a woman and love everything you have to do. Makes me want to get busy in your yard - the progress is so satisfying!
Day by day I accomplish something. It is satisfying for sure! Buzz
Great idea to document your ‘before’. It’s going to be beautiful! But please give yourself time and no pressure to do it all in one summer! As I recall from living in KS, the heat, bugs, humidity and storms limit your working outside time to some degree. Love your wife’s herb garden area😍 Enjoy your first summer off!!!
Thank you! I do like to accomplish something every day. Yesterday I cleaned up a large tree that fell Monday due to high winds here. Not planned so I get off track from my main goals but I still accomplished something! Day by day right? Buzz
Beautiful home and yard, Buzz’s Kingdom. Thanks for sharing all your projects, you’ve got the whole summer.
Thank you for watching. I better get out there. Lol. Buzz
Really enjoyed the tour!!! You are doing good!! Everybody has projects to do around the house!! Your right Saturday mostly..... Not any more..... Steady getting projects lined up to do!! I have 10 acres of land to keep up with so you can image how well mine looks for Saturdays??? Keep them coming when your ipdate with them projects!!!
Get ready to enjoy your new life!
Never drywall your garage. Pegboard your garage. So much storage and makes everything easy to find. And the finished white pegboard looks nice.
With all the shelving and tools hanging I don't have room for pegboard but that's a fantastic idea. Buzz
Wow ... that's overwhelming ...
Nah. A fun few weeks ahead! Buzz
Nice video Buzz! And sharing a peek behind the curtain. Looks like you have some future projects ahead. Really enjoying your content!
Thank you. I don't have to worry about going to a real job so this work is something I actually look forward too! Buzz
I don’t know if you know this but the Osage trees are very valuable. If you are into archery and you build your own bows that tree is very sought after.
I did not know that. Another winter project maybe?
God bless you❤ I'm excited for you both.❤Can't wait for the lovely changes❤
Thank you so much! Buzz
Looks like you keep yourself busy which is so important. Need hobbies and interests.
My summer is booked! So much to do and I'm loving every minute of it! Buzz
I don't know what you can grow for roses there in the relative tropics. Around here we do a lot with the "Morden" roses. They're from the research station at Morden Manitoba and they're tough as nails. Morden Sunrise, Morden Blush, etc. No troubles with diseases, winter kill, and so forth. Man that yard full of maintenance tasks sure looks familiar ;) I bet you'll have more done by the end of summer than I will.
I was just looking for those tires online after you mentioned it because I need to replace two along the side of the house. I'll keep my eyes open. We'll have to exchange yard photos at the end of August. Lol
It's very nice of you, Buzz, to help the stray cats in the winter; thanks for showing your house and yard. You will have to do another video when your projects are completed for the " big reveal."
Got the electric outlet done today so I'm happy about that. Building a small fence tomorrow. This is a labor of love. Thank you for your kind words. Buzz
You have a nice property! Good luck on your yard work!
I appreciate your comment. Thank you. Buzz
shed wise I'm a believer the total square footage should be double the house 😂
That would be nice but wood and plastic shed prices have skyrocketed. You're funny though. Could you imagine that? Lol. Buzz
Buzz, there's not many people that would actually admit to their CZcams viewers that they were the proud proprieter of several cat houses. I'm interested in seeing what the income is when you get them back in operation.
Huggybear retired. Someone had to take over.
The deck and flower beds will look great when you’re done buzz I’m sure.
Thank you. One step at a time.
Thanks for the tour buzz! I wish I could share a video of my property, it is very similar ;-). I do have a lot of projects and plans. So many sometimes it’s hard to decide where to start is the problem. Keep us updated and let us know how you prioritize what to work on
Just shoot some video from your phone and upload it. Or, send it to my email. nopurplecar@gmail.com. Sometimes I do a project by planning, buying materials, then executing. Other times I just do a bunch of small jobs. Got the electric outlet done today and tomorrow I'll plant carrots and get the fence ready. Buzz
A lot of videos can come out of all that work. I'm looking forward to seeing all of them.
Might just be a before and after but we'll see how it goes. Thanks for watching! Buzz
The deer have already eaten all my hosta! No leaves anymore, so it looks like I’m just growing celery stalks.
I didn't know deer ate hostas. Over here they thrive and the deer don't bother them.
Enjoy your Summer 😎
You too! Buzz
Here’s to hoping for good weather this summer, so you can have a lot of sunny days for your projects 🍸
Raining like crazy right now. You know what that does? Weeeeeds!
You're going to be busy this summer Buzz😊👍 I look forward to seeing your progression. Sahbia
I look forward to seeing the progress too! Lol
No rush...we are retired 👍😊
Buzz’s “retirement”: work full time at home! “Yes, dear!” 🤗🤓
It's fun though! If I didn't want to do it I'd hire it out and in a week it would be done. Having my hands on it makes it special. Buzz
I applaud you for showing off all of your projects...we all have them! You may have to get out the heating pad as my back would hurt from pulling so many weeds lol so pace yourself! Enjoyed seeing the Before and look forward to seeing the After!
It's going to be a labor of love that's for sure!
Thanks for sharing Buzz, will be interested in the follow-up video. Large lot you have, awesome. Work at your own pace. Sometimes a 3 hour job takes 3 days, that is ok, your retired.
My problem is I have so much to do that I can't stay focused. It's actually a nice problem to have! Little by little I'll catch up!
Ha! Just got done replacing the faucet washers in two bathtub valve stems (wasn't going to do it today, but said, "What the heck...."), reseated two bathroom sinks (removed, reseated/caulked/replaced p trap assembly on one (the original installers botched it up and had a pretty bad misalignment)), resettled a couple plants/bushes in the back, and am eyeing some weathered/rotted trim around a panel under the bay window - there's no end (but, all-in-all, that's what makes it enjoyable...) - now, if only I had a good faucet seat wrench around here somewhere....
You're right. That's what makes it enjoyable. I get done what I get done and plan for the next day. No pressures, no timeline. It's soooo great. Hope those sinks and tubs are working well! Buzz
Great backyard Buzz. You definitely have the projects. The great thing is that you can enjoy doing them and no rush. Looking forward to seeing whatever projects get done.
Finally after all these years I can really get deep into everything and still take plenty of coffee breaks!
You have a nice property. Try to chill out and enjoy it since you are retired. No need for anyone to keep score. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Sweat is good. Helps me to lose weight. Lol. Buzz
I love the curtains. I can tell from your garage that you stay busy and have different interests. Thanks for the tour.
That bamboo curtain is beat up. I'll see if I can fix it up.
Plants are in today , only need to put the long hose for the backyard ( just turn the faucet) and it gets watered ( easy) I also got all my flowers at cosco ... I cant wait to see your make over its actually fun to do . I do a bit every day like that i don't get fed-up , I am tired i take a brake and listen to the birds ........Funny about the cats houses we have 3 heated one also ..............funny i got rid of my exercise machine the second year I was retired . I tried gardening but not for me , go to the farmer market better success. i have a great lot , i am much smaller 10 sq feet only
I'm glad we have more and more light. Really makes it easy to spend more time outside. Good luck with your flowers!
that's a LOT of work! it'll be interesting!
Interesting is a good word. Lol.
Buzz will not be graded as lazy. He will be graded as "retired, and doing all this at his own pace" !! You certainly have plenty to stay as busy as you like. Take it easy during the heat of the summer for sure. I see most of that as autumn thru spring work.
I stocked my little fridge with plenty of water and when it's real hot, I'm in the house! I work hard but smart. Lol.
Nice property. FWIW, my now 87 year-old mother taught me to kill weeds with a tea kettle. Boil water and pour it carefully.
Good bye weeds, no chemicals necessary.
That's a good idea. I think someone sells a blowtorch that you hook a propane tank to. That would be fun!
Retired 4 years now. Watching your content is very relatable and validating. Retirement, for the wife and I has been amazing. Home projects will keep you busy. Pace yourself and be careful, watch out for back and joint injuries. Also, don’t overpay for “designer “ soil. Lol.
I do worry about accidents. Today I scratched my arm pretty good on some wire. I just shake my head at some of the dumb things I do. I just bought a few bags of the dirt. Usually I'll get a load of soil delivered but I don't think I need it this year. Thanks for watching! Buzz
The time you spend on cosmetics at home I spend on the pickleball court. Both are good exercise!
I like the cardio of pickleball even though I've never engaged in it....yet.
I am actually a bit encouraged that while we have a million and a half projects that will be put off until retirement, we're not alone!! I was wondering your lot size, as it seemed a lot bigger than ours, and it is. We're 66 x 206 so you have a lot more to take care of if you actually "maintain" it all. My favorite take-away was no Round Up. So incredibly detrimental to the environment. We go with vinegar and salt as well. And it works!! What do you use to deter the rabbits? Not found anything effective. Thanks for the share - looking forward to the fall season follow-up.
I was using Good Nature lawn care for two years because it's all organic but they wanted $600 a year and that's not even a complete package. I can't afford that now. I only have one rabbit out there. Between the coyotes and hawks I'm surprised he/she is even living so I have no rabbit advice. Buzz
@@BuzzRetirementGarage Makes sense. We have tons of hawks, but we're pretty urban, so coyotes only occasionally make it to our neighborhood. 🙂And that's pricey on the lawn care, I agree. Getting rid of Round Up is a big deal though.
I love gardening, and call it “play”, not work. I suggest some “weed whacking” to remove overwhelming mess, and dig out weed roots over a month? Add soil amendments, flowers, mulch a few square feet per day 😊
Yep. That's a good plan. I'll be digging them out one by one. Buzz
Thanks for the tour Buzz.
It should look a lot better soon! Step by step. Buzz
I have the same thing going on with veggie garden in back yard. Going to enjoy my first summer in a couple decades like yourself
@@johngarceau541 Excellent!!!
Your grade its goint to be A+A+A+A+A By the way, you have a beautiful place buddy!
We'll see! Lot's of work ahead! Thank you for the confidence builder! Buzz
Maybe build Rectangular raised flower planter to nearly span that deck space and paint it white to match.
That's a good idea. I'll check online for some build examples. Thank you! Buzz
And this is…weed 😄. Love it! Nice hearing that the fence your father-in-law put up will stay up; says a lot about the relationship between the two of you 👍. For starters I will give you an E for effort. It all starts with making an effort. Thank you for taking us on a tour of your surroundings at home and the nice sized yard/lot. I’m looking forward to the ‘after’ of your project. Sounds like one heck of a productive retirement life! Keep enjoying !
The spring/summer has been amazing. I suffered through winter but now I've got a groove and a steady schedule. Finally figured it out. This is a labor of love. Trust me. Buzz
I commend you for posting non Instagram ready video. It's real life and I appreciate it. We start out with good intentions and things look lovely for a bit and then life gets in the way. Enjoy your summer.
Thank you for watching and commenting. It will be a fun summer! Buzz
Love video of your "home" you and your family have made. This place means a lot and appreciate history of meaningful things to you. Great job!
Thank you. I appreciate your words.
Really enjoyed the tour. Thank you for sharing your beautiful property. I can totally relate to how fast things fall in disarray. My husband had a stroke just over a year ago and it has been a up hill battle trying to keep up with weeds and mowing. Good luck. This is a great idea.
If you were close to me I'd help you out. The two yard challenge! I like it! Buzz
Thank you for this tour. Beautiful property. In Germany the back yards in general aren’t so wide, we have less space. I am impressed.
Thank you for watching. The best part is that I don't have houses behind me. Was a golf course now being turned into a nature trail so I've been told. Buzz
Thanks for the tour. One of the things i find about retirement is that i don't have to cram all the projects into two days at 8 hours a pop. Now, i can work on a project for three to four hours, my comfort zone, and then call it a day. Definitely, it has moved projects from have to, to want to. Also, I now have the luxury to admire my handiwork while sipping an adult beverage 😉 Keep up telling your story.
I agree 100%. My timeline will eventually get this done. Buzz
I have been retired 3 months now and spent the first month cleaning the garage and basement. Many trips to the dump and goodwill. Now I can start on the outside. keep us updated on your progress. Thanks
Hope you're tackling the outside just like I am. Thank you for watching. Buzz
I’ve got faith in you. You’ll get stuff done. But before you do anything, get that bird bath set up for the birds Buzz! That’s a must. Ps. I have to take a nap. Got tired looking at all your projects. 😂❤
Got the electric outlet done and the birdbath. Step by step. Now I need a nap. Buzz
Thanks for the tour Buzz! Enjoy retirement!
Thank you for taking time to watch! Buzz
Now I know why I keep putting off retirement it’s to keep putting off the chores 😂
(Tapping the side of my head) You, are a smart person! Lol. It's not bad. Come join us! Buzz
We need to meet Mrs Buzz
She says no. Sorry. Lol
What a fabulous property you have, so much green : ) I can't wait to see the after! You have a lot of good projects to work on this summer, gunna keep ya busy Buzz : ) I switched to vinegar too with Dawn dish soap works great, kills off weeds and bugs!
Thank you! I'll get a handle on it over the next few weeks. Lot's to do with many coffee breaks in between. Lol
And OOH, Imma copy you on this. My to do list is already 19 items long - some big, many tiny, but still...
One by one, step by step with lots of breaks in between!
Thanks for sharing Buzz. Take you time and enjoy your summer!
Absolutely. Weeds can always wait a minute or two. Buzz
When the pandemic hit in 2020 I was laid off for 3 months April ,may,June ,that was the most time off from work since 1978 when I was in jr high .next year I’ll be 62 on social security and probably driving a school bus so I’ll have summers off starting summer of 2025.
I think I got 7 workdays off during the pandemic. We had military contracts and no such thing as staying home. You have a good plan. Enjoy your bus driving days. Buzz
Hi Buzz! I also stopped using Roundup when my dog got cancer. The vet had told me that she had seen a huge increase in pet cancers since people started using so much of those toxic chemicals in their yards. I now use vinegar like you do - it just doesn't last as long. I have aggressively growing poison ivy in many areas of my yard here in Virginia 😟
It doesn't work as well as Roundup but that's ok with me. On the flip side, I spent $1,100 over 2 years having an organic lawn service. Didn't help the lawn at all so I do 2 feedings of weed and feed. One in spring. One in late fall. The vinegar did work on a big patch of poison ivy but I had to hit it twice. Buzz
Thank you Buzz for bringing us along on your "to do" list! 😅 I was doing my morning exercises while watching, and your list made me feel more tired then my workout!!😂😉 I'd recommend writing each "project" down in order of importance to you... and tackling one at a time, checking each off the list...is something that helps me and keeps me on track when I have a Large amount of work to do.... remember how you "eat an elephant?"... one teaspoon at a time!😄
Looking forward to the follow up video in the Fall!
Diane in NorCal:)
Thank you and I hope you had a good workout! I do write down some of the low level projects so I won't forget about them. It's going to be a fun summer! Buzz
@@BuzzRetirementGarage 😄💪
Wow you are handy!
Sometimes I have to do something two or three times but eventually it gets done.
I got so much to do I don’t know how I did it when I was working.
I kept saying as soon as I retire I'll be busy with this yard and garden. I was right. It's all good. Buzz
I have to tell you Buzz. I got tired just looking at the video. Remember Rome was not built in a day. Good luck to Buzz.
I take my time. Planted carrot seeds. Trimmed pine tree. Took time to listen to the birds before the storm came in. Buzz
Buzz I had a brain freeze. I was not tired of watching your video. I meant to say I was looking at all of your future jobs for the summer that was making me tired. I don’t think I would be up for the jobs. Good luck in getting all the tasks completed.
@@oldwentzvilleguy5435 I understood you. Makes me tired too. Lol. Buzz
U do have a lot to do but it will be fun. Maybe do a compost pile since you have a little of weeds and then leaves in the fall.
It will be fun! I have a chipper/shredder so all my leaves get ground up and this spring I put them around the 32 tomato plants. I burn the weeds and sticks. Thank you for watching! Buzz
I love a good before and after!!
Oh the jokes I have for that line! Nope. Can't use them here!
Gardening is a full time job. If you want to " have a life " in retirement, then severly cut down on all the plants, etc.
Oh no, I'm loving it!
Very peaceful setting. I don't think it will take you all summer to get everything done once you get started. It's great being retired and doing things for yourself
Ha! You don't know my work style. It will take me all summer. Too many coffee breaks. Lol. Buzz
@@BuzzRetirementGarage well you have earned the coffee breaks
That what I did Saturday was my only day to do stuff. It was jam packed now I can at my leisure
Yep! I have a lot of catching up to do!
Progress. You will get there. Nice property.
Slow but steady wind the race? Something like that. Loving retirement for sure. Buzz
Thanks!
Wow! Thank you. Inspiring me to clean up this place! Buzz
And people wonder what they will do in retirement 🤦🏻♂😂
You have your work cut out for you for sure.
This reminds me that I need to film our house. The contractor told me today that he’s starting on Tuesday.
My summer is booked. Besides the weeds, I need to build a cement base for the shed. I was thinking a dry pour. You ever do that? Some say it works well for sheds. I also have a bathroom I'm tearing down. I'll stay out of trouble for a while.
@@BuzzRetirementGarage the only time I dry pour is on fence posts. When I have removed posts the concrete seems very weak but I don’t know much about it, maybe I did something wrong.
I also feel like I can probably only get the finish I want with an old school pour. There’s a bit of an art to finish work but you’re going to have to live with it so I always want it to be at least good. Finish work is something I’ve picked up over many years or, nowadays, an hour on CZcams
@@FailureatRetirement Luckily I don't need to worry about the finish too much since a shed will sit on top on the pad. I can buy a cement mixer for under $300 at Harbor freight. We'll see how it goes.
Definitely no shortage of things to do in retirement
My first summer in retirement too! Lots to do like you haha . I like that greenhouse! So that holds up with a snow load on it??
Yes it holds up. I can't believe it myself. It's served us well!
@@BuzzRetirementGarage Where did you get it? Thanks! :)
@@willay747 Wife got it from Amazon. There are thick ones and thin ones. Get the thickest one. Buzz
I’d admonish you for letting so many things slide but then I’d be throwing rocks in a glass house…….😂
This is what I don’t get about people who say they’re bored in retirement - anybody who has worked for a living has GOT to have a similar situation where you enter retirement with about five years of projects waiting for you around the house just like this…….🤔
Thanks for not kicking my butt! That's what I said about the shed. I had to wait until retirement to tackle it otherwise it would have never gotten done. Between building a pad and assembly, it would have taken me at least 6 Saturdays. That's a lot of time for one project. This will be a fun summer! Buzz
Really enjoying your videos. I am just curious about something and I just wondered if you could answer a question for me. Were you already planning on retiring or did Sarasota Tim help give you the push you needed? I watch Sarasota Tim and I feel like he has definitely opened a lot of peoples eyes on retirement.
Hi! I document my reasoning in other videos but basically I knew my company was losing a huge part of business, no fault of theirs, in October 2023. In 2022 and 2023 I started planning to leave my company and retire, or, work another job closer to home. Now I'm 8 months into retirement trying to live on our SS checks only. Don't want to touch savings. That's the short version. Buzz
@@BuzzRetirementGarage That is great! I haven’t watched all your videos yet but will try to get to them. I was just curious, it does make sense.
Man, you do have plenty of work to do in your retirement! I have nothing to do. My landscape and home projects are all done. Next big thing for me is installing new security camera's around the property. Then buy our flowers for the summer this weekend.
maybe offer to cut grass for an elderly neighbor every other week 😊
@@Barbara-jn2gw One of my retired neighbors already does that. We are the oldest 2 on the block. Besides the people he cuts there grass for are young people in there 30's Go figure.
I believe that!
Glad your stuff is under control. I'll get there too!
@@skydancerforever just a suggestion. if you're one of the oldest then, someone should cut your grass.😊. I'm the oldest in my neighborhood too. how did this happen.
Then the spirit came upon Amasai, who was chief of the captains, and he said, Thine are we, David, and on thy side, thou son of Jesse: peace, peace be unto thee, and peace be to thine helpers; for thy God helpeth thee.
What do you use for weeds?
Where does the car go LOL.
It'll fit easily in the garage soon. Lol
Bradford Pear trees can’t be sold in Pennsylvania either. I guess because they are to invasive or spread like crazy.
Do you need a permit for that shed?
The county may want to tax you more.
They say those trees can snap and it's close to the house so I may take it down some day. But not today. Lol. What shed? Just kidding. Everything we do technically needs a permit. When we put an addition on in 1997 I had to go before the zoning committee and they asked me why I wanted to add an addition. I told the committee I'd be adding another bathroom. Then I explained I lived with 3 women and 1 bathroom! They stamped the approval immediately. Lol.
@@BuzzRetirementGarage I don’t think you need a permit if it’s less than 150 square feet
@@calvinreichelderfer7989 They want a permit for everything. Windows, steps, interior remodeling, sheds ( no size description). I'll talk to them and see.
@@BuzzRetirementGarage I googled it but they are probably watching you pretty closely now that you’re retired and a lunatic!😂
Buzz do you have a snowblower?
A small Toro. Why do you ask?
@@BuzzRetirementGarage I ask because I saw all your tools in your garage, but I didn’t see a snowblower and I know in your area you do get snow.
@@maryalbert6138 It was in there. I'll have to watch the video again. Good eye!
Too much work to do
Yes but I don't mind. Keeps me out of trouble. It will be easier to keep up next year too.
And people ask what are going to do with all your time in retirement.
And this doesn't include a bathroom remodel and basement makeover. Lol
@@BuzzRetirementGarage I am exhausted now. I just plan to finally be able to keep my house clean and experiment with lots of new recipes. Also, to keep up a workout routine. Oh, and more trips to WV to help out my Dad. See, we have lots to do in retirement.
@@myhorse52 I just have to do better in the winter. Last winter, my first in retirement, caught me flatfooted. I have a much better routine now and I should be a lot better.
@@BuzzRetirementGarage Yes, our crappy weather here in Northeast, Ohio puts a damper on things. I am sure by this winter you will have a good handle on it.
Ever park a car in your garage?😂
Yes! All winter. I should have everything straightened out before the snow comes this year. Lol. Buzz
@@BuzzRetirementGarage right on 👍🏻💯
