However, I’ve come to accept the fact that my demise probably won’t be at my choosing. To that end, I’m avoiding as much work as possible. Which is easier said than done. I’m in the middle of remodeling a 100-year-old building my wife and I use as an office. I thought the place was fine as is. It certainly fill...
