What to do......

If you are like me, then you have finally met your fatherly obligations and helped raise your family.

It is now time for me to pursue the things that I had to suspend while I devoted my life to my sons.  Some will call it a mid-life crisis but I will disagree. It is finally my time and I don't know how much sand is left in the hourglass. I now have the time (I hope) and money to do things that I want pursue.

As I began this new stage of my life, I started to buy a new wardrobe. Since it had been nearly two decades since I could afford clothes or that they mattered to me I encountered a problem: I was no longer in the target market for GQ or most of the other men's fashion magazines. There is some advice on Twitter or Instagram accounts but they cater to the very affluent and who can blame them if they are looking to make money.

So what I hope to do is start a blog that focuses on clothes and other aspects of "men of a certain age" lifestyle and the choices that are out there. Gather information about the whys, hows, etc. I am not sure right now the direction of the blog but it will eventually either blossom or die on the vine.

I hope it provides some value and input is welcomed; however, keep things civil. There is enough rudeness in the world.
