50’s male looking for information

I'm 76 and retired since 2008. Yep, taking testosterone shots since for the past 15-20 years. My blood testosterone is checked every year or so and the shots are still recommended--guess my 'nads slowed down years ago. I had bad exhaustion everyday and my blood testosterone level showed looow. The shots helped that a bunch. No side effects that I can detect 'cept for the return of a fully functionable dick. Don't mind that side effect.


Body's slowing down a bit. The struggle getting up off the ground would probably make a funny video. Been trying to stop mechanin' on my '63 Dart wagon, but I have a few things to do. Antisway bars, interior work (the little I have interior talent for), normal undercar things. Might have a loose connecting rod tick so maybe an overhaul.3 speed shifter works just fine but I readjust now and then just cuz. I have many new car kits to build and a couple balsa WWll airplane kits (love balsa kits). I keep finding garage things to finish up, then model building. Perhaps. Still, the car stuff is there that needs work. Gotta admit, the body is gonna run the show in a few years. Really, I'm one lucky guy

This subject of boredom hasn't hit me too hard. I think I understand it, however) When I read this thread it hit my motormouth keyboard. I'll shut up.

So- Mopar people. I’ve hit that age in life where I am dangerous. I’ve got more money than time. I pick up my smart phone and stare at it looking for something, but feel let down other than conservative tin hat sites (I’m bored with) and well….. here. I’ve got nothing else to kill time. Cars were my hobby but work has taken full focus. Anyone else fell this way. Car projects - well I want them done but the energy is just not there anylonger. Still love my MoPars but not enough to dive in and complete any more.

Im not complaining, I’ve worked hard my whole life, I have money left over in small quantities and feel like I’m buying stuff just to buy. Big ticket items are out of the question- I’m not buying a new truck for what feels like 30%-40% more than it is worth when my current truck is a garage queen. I think I’m bored. Kids all grown up, don’t need Dad anymore, holidays suck, and going out with old friends just mean re telling the same stories I’ve told 100 times before. The wife is kinda the same way but she became an EMT for the local FD. She holds a full time job as an executive with a major corporation. I grant you I am blessed. Everyday I thank my lucky stars but I’m bored. Anyone else feel this way?
