I'm glad to hear that for your father! ❤️ my dad has also been a little project-machine gun since he retired. He is always doing something, which is awesome to see.
Personally, I know that if I was given all the time in the world like that, I would wither and feel completely hopeless. I don't have a drive to start things if it is only for myself. For me, working is a relief because I'm needed by others and I feel a purpose.
