It's one of the hardest parts of "growing up(older)" I think. Congratulations on your retirement, being at home full time is so different than working and trying to manage a household. When I made the transition a little over a year ago I honestly did not know how I ever worked so much and still ran the house! But more time for trouble? um, yeah....no comment :-)River Wildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12914080438490765849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7212712207893602436.post-68084901995573131142014-06-20T12:14:47.078-06:002014-06-20T12:14:47.078-06:00Hi Kenzie,

Boring can be good right? :0) Yes, super happy to have more time to myself and not knowing exactly what I am going to do with my days.. Each day is a new adventure for now.

I am liking retirement very much so far and look forward to seeing what happens the rest of this year.

Truth be told Alex and I have been going back and forth on this decision for almost a year now. I am still getting use to the idea of it all and it is crazy to have so much control over my days now... So happy I finally caved and everyday is a new adventure for me now. Alex is starting to wonder what he has gotten himself into, as I seem to have more time now to get into trouble... :0) But I am sure we will figure it all out as it comes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15409977636543884387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7212712207893602436.post-67949366027264558192014-06-20T11:11:02.607-06:002014-06-20T11:11:02.607-06:00Hi Cat,

Not having to watch them suffer is a great help in the process of moving on. I am having a blast so far with my days to fill with my own agenda. I have been able to keep myself busy, but some times that leads to trouble too. :0) But the way I look at it, he asked for it... HA! <br /><br />Hmmmm.. I will have to work myself up some courage to share my stories, they are totally a first for me. Blogging took me some time to settle into and sharing became easier as I went along. Maybe the same will happen with my stories.. Unless they totally suck, not sure. :0) I love that it feels like I have another world when I sit down and write them. It's like jumping out of my life and having a totally different one for a few hours .. Lots of fun. <br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15409977636543884387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7212712207893602436.post-30243782101261731002014-06-20T11:03:02.910-06:002014-06-20T11:03:02.910-06:00Hi Willie,

That they both went quick without suffering has really helped all of us. :0)<br /><br />Loving your days of the week!!! Alex said not to get any ideas, but I am thinking it's something worth pushing for.. Margarita Mondays for sure!! It' s such a difference to be home and plan meals and basically just welcome home the family each night. Crazy difference in the amount of stress I don't feel anymore! I am sure that will change now that the kids are on summer break, but both have gotten summer jobs so I am enjoying my time alone. Plus I can finally take a bubble bath without locking my bathroom down like fort Knox!! :0)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15409977636543884387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7212712207893602436.post-18666790217623996982014-06-20T07:12:02.674-06:002014-06-20T07:12:02.674-06:00I'm so sorry for your families loss.

My Dad was preparing to die from the ravages of cancer of well, and also died of a heart attack. Watching Barney's Mom die of cancer, I'll take the latter anytime- but it certainly doesn't make it easier for those left behind. If you can take comfort that they are together now. Little consolation I know at times.<br /><br />Irish, congrats on your retirement. Welcome to Margarita Mondays!! Tequila Shot Tuesday. Wino Wends....LOL.. Kidding *hick*. Enjoy getting all those pesky things off of your plate so you and Alex can actually enjoy 'days off' as they are meant to be!<br /><br />Happy to see you back<br />williewilliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01907855123777628267noreply@blogger.com
