Thank you and Wow, did you ever make me feel special with your posts. It was interesting for me after I posted I actually felt better about life, it made me realize that over the years I have used this as my journaling tool and how I would come and just start typing and how something that was bothering me just came up. I know that we are all on a never ending journey with our gambling. We learn so much from the posts of others that they don’t even realize it. In transitioning into retirement I took something that Liz posted one time, and it’s not verbatim, but about doing something every day or every day is the same. I have been dealing with dental appointments, eye appointments and other medical things before my hubby’s benefits stop. I have gone out for lunch with different friends two or three times a week. Hubby and I have been out for supper and the big one is him and I shopping together LOL I have also been with him to all his medical appointments and spent the day at the hospital with him last week, but lucky enough everything was fine.
I ask myself am I enjoying retirement? And for the most part I can say yes. It is a big change for me as I loved my job, and it was a huge part of my life, and not just 9am – 5 pm it was all encompassing, but I can honestly say that I definitely don’t miss the stress.
I have so many things to do around the house and I will get there. I just need to use that one day at a time attitude with the things I want done. Well I must go and get ready as I am going for lunch with a friend. Have a happy gamble free day everyone!!!!
