I was referencing the "creak and groans" part of getting old. Not the
"repeating my misteaks" part(s) of life.

That's where the bread machine is invaluable. I just took a look and a
nice item that even does gluten-free bread is available (more than one)
in the U$74 - U$85 range.
Given my lack of counter space/work area it good to have something like
that which stores easily in the pantry and does away with needing any
kneading (yes, I at stated it that way in purpose) room.
Last thing I used my stand mixer, which does not move off the counter
easily, for was a bundt cake which I made as a my contribution to a pot
luck at my work.
