Too many thoughts.

Holy cow!  I've been gone so long.  I'm baaack.  Too many thoughts going on in my head, can't sleep.  I just retired about a month ago and it's taking some time to adjust.  Being home 24/7 with hubby and dog puts both of them at risk.  I'm fine.  I want to go, go, go.  But not by myself.  I have friends, close friends, but this winter has been absolutely horrific.  Too much snow, too much wind, too much cold.  While I was working, I at least got out of the house.  I really enjoyed working with the people there.  Still keep in contact with several of them.  So, what do I do with myself?

Well, I make plans for the day I can get out in my yard/flowers/garden.  I thrift shop and sell same.  I'm trying to discover who I am now, after 40 years of marriage to the same man.  I know I'm an individual.  I have my own opinions.  But sometimes I feel like I've lost myself.  But, I remember that I make the choices.  And I'm in a good place.  Retirement with your spouse is like being kids again.  Go when you want, do what you want.  As long as weather permits!  LOL  Not as young as we used to be and it takes time for the old body to warm up.  Both of us! 

So, Happy Retirement to those of you who have gone before me.  And for those who are still waiting to retire; you'll get there.  Enjoy!
