Three Years of Retirement

by Linda
(FL)

It has been 3 years since I retired and they have gone so quickly. It has taken this much time to start to feel I am settling in.

I would have never have believed time would go this fast or that I'd need this much time. I am enjoying the freedom.

We have done some travelling, enough to know that I am not a good traveller. I mostly enjoy being home and doing my activities.

For those of you newly retired it does take time to adjust. Rest. Do not sign up for committments for at least six months, maybe even a year.

No major decisions for the first year, unless they were in the making prior to your retiring. Get to know who you are at this stage of life.

Routine is important with an emphasis on self- care.
