Quoted from OLDPINGUY:

Today, if its not a weekend or two resto, I have to pass...Ill never know if I can get the time to go further,
Makes me enjoy playing, testing new products, and some tinkering joy....more then enough.
It can get hard to see a garage, room or basement of projects, and walk by going, "ill get to those soon"
Better to just, "Walk away", as the Op says...
Now, why didnt I learn this about women years ago........
