Too much spare time can be a problem too, then you spend most of your time waiting. Could be doing something , but have to wait for the Doctors Office to call, could be doing something but have to wait for something else. I used to be a lot more impatient, but I still hate waiting.

Too much spare time can work out expensive too, time spent browsing Ebay, making steam models and buying steam fittings!
