by WV MetroNewsAs we wrap up the year, a lot of people have asked, “How’s retirement?” My standard response is, “Well, I was really good at work, but I’m really bad at retirement.”
I’m mostly joking, but there is an element of truth to it.
The fact is, I’ve been really busy since I stepped away from my full-time responsibilities with MetroNews and WVRC Media last January. Some days, I’m busier than I had planned, but for me that’s better than having too much free time on my hands.
I’m still writing
