Just relax, don't let people convince you that you will be idle or bored, go with the flow. Get use to the question: what do you do all day? I was happy to say "volunteer", it kept them quiet. ;-) There are pajama days, and cleaning days, and running around days, and so on and so forth. All at your discretion. I jumped into volunteering, too, right at the beginning. Not so sure I would do that again right away. xoBarbara F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05650730931602700042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6930223252966474185.post-76357318850867225892013-05-25T09:53:06.642-04:002013-05-25T09:53:06.642-04:00Buttercup, Thank you for the mention, and always f...Buttercup, Thank you for the mention, and always for the visits.

In the past two years I have gone through some ups and downs, however there have been many more ups and now I am completely into the rhythm of retirement. The key for me was to find purpose and to finally breathe out. Life is good and I wish you the same.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6930223252966474185.post-17853430237465214062013-05-25T07:52:18.545-04:002013-05-25T07:52:18.545-04:00I can imagine you are excited about retiring.
