I'm back!

I've been sick for over a week and am finally feeling better.  Today we have a Nor'easter storm brewing outside which has turned the neighborhood into a winter wonderland.  Today is a good day to clean out closets and do some spring cleaning:)  Yes, I am trying to hurry spring!  My husband is home due to the storm and is cooking his favorite meal...spaghetti!  He has to have his fix of sauce and pasta at least once a week.

Being retired has its ups and downs.  You have so much time on your hands that you can accomplish a lot...clean your house, do errands, volunteer, meet up with friends, work on your blog:), spend time on the computer, call and make appointments, watch TV, go outside and take a walk, shovel when the snow comes, exercise inside the house, read a book, work on crafts, and figure out what you want to do with the rest of your life.

I'm at the point in time of figuring out what I want to do with the rest of my life.  I would like to reach out to other retired people and find out how they are coping with retirement.  Is it what you expected?  Any surprises?  Are you doing what you dreamed of doing?  Do you have direction?  Focus?  Are you happy?  Do you have too much time on your hands?  Do you know what you want to do with the rest of your life?

I created this blog to help each other realize their purpose, their focus, their direction...happiness in retirement!  I look forward to input from all of you.  Let's learn together what a wonderful life we have and how we can make this chapter in our lives one of the best!
