The Referendum is a phenomenon typical of (but not limited to) midlife, whereby people, increasingly aware of the finiteness of their time in the world, the limitations placed on them by their choices so far, and the narrowing options remaining to them, start judging their peers’ differing choices with reactions ranging from envy to contempt. The Referendum can subtly poison formerly close and uncomplicated relationships, creating tensions between the married and the single, the childless and parents, careerists and the stay-at-home. It’s exacerbated by the far greater diversity of options available to us now than a few decades ago, when everyone had to follow the same drill. We’re all anxiously sizing up how everyone else’s decisions have worked out to reassure ourselves that our own are vindicated — that we are, in some sense, winning.

New office set up complete with Pop's former workhorse (apple desktop 21 inch, mid 2010) has given me the extra boost towards freelance work-life.  At least once a day, though, I'm back on the desktop sifting through Pop's file "system"... or archive of all cool things he made happen for our family. I can't think of many days spent with him that didn't include adventure, oddities, surprises, homeade gifts, and always relevant conversation.

Here is the 2nd wooden boat Pop restored, her name is Delilah. It's named after my living grandma (who wasn't stoked on the name and probably rolled her eyes at the thought).

More posts from Richard Henderson's mac soon to follow...
