On My Own Again
Within the hour, I'll be running solo (I loosely use the term running). I think because I've worked for so many years, I feel the need to plan my time all the time. This means I'm already thinking about how to fill the quiet minutes.
Here are some of the opportunities I'm planning:
- Spending more time with my family & friends
- Doing some fun stuff during the day that I can't usually do like go out to lunch at fun
places, go to the zoo, watch Beckett frolic at OMSI, etc. - Read, read, read
- Walk, walk, walk
- Add more music to my IPOD and organize it all into playlists (I never could find my holiday music to play at Christmastime)
- Placing all the old, loose
photographs in photo books - Cleaning out closets & drawers
- Organizing my study
- Begin practising my piano as soon as I have access to my right hand

Reads like some fun time ahead, or at least "catching up times"... enjoy!
S - I just got back from your site and enjoyed some of your lists. I have many of the same observations of people who expect you to act the same way, day in and day out. I think they feel the need to keep us in a category and don't know how to handle it if we ever step out.
you could never handle retirement. i need to pop out some puppies to keep you busy.
