Here's the concept: instead of things you want to do before you die (AKA the Bucket List), I'm thinking about creating a Fuck It List, of things I want to never have to do again.

If you were doing so, what would you put on your list.

I was hanging out with a retired former coworker last weekend, and she got in my head. I have at least 11 years to go, assuming I'm able to retire, so it's not realistic now. But what is life without hopes and dreams?

So far, all I have on the list is:

Having time for a quick chat with my manager.

I will rejoice when I don't have to do that again.

Mow a lawn, bonus: rake leaves

    I'm torn on the yardwork concept.

    I don't like it, but I like having a nice yard. Or at least, I did 30 years ago when I had both time and energy to do it.

    In the intervening time, I tried paying people to do it, but I was never able to find someone who didn't do a shit job. Now I find myself trying to reclaim parts of my yard that the landscapers let go wild.

    I guess my search history is too crunchy granola, because I get ads for clover and microclover seed. They claim you don't need to mow, it's good for pollinators and resists pet urine. If I didn't think my neighbors would complain, I'd make the switch.
