Retirement

One nice thing about retirement is you can get out of bed any time of the day you like......

 

And once you get up you can take the rest of the day off.

Life is mean. When I was working, I hated getting up at 6AM to go to work.

 

Now I wake up at 5AM.

There is one bad thing about retirement......

 

Days seem longer when you don't have quitting time to look forward to.

Haven't worked on the train for months. Kinda lost interest again. Winter blues I guess. I am building an HO structure but it is for the tree layout and in no rush to finish. Still grieving for the Prin a bit too. Maybe if it ever warms up around here I might feel more active. Meanwhile I have been doing a lot of cross-stitching this winter. Yes, I do that too while watching TV. Can't keep my fingers still while sitting in front of the boob tube. There is still about a three to four foot dept to the snow in the yard. We need rain and warm temperatures soon!

My wife doesn't mind having me around the house all the time.

 

In fact, in my loose fitting shorts, sloppy holey T-shirt, floppy hat and old comfortable shoes, she'd rather I not be seen out in public.

Pete,

Well here's to warmer weather where we might be in danger of seeing you out and about dressed like that!

 

It is trying to warm up here in spits and spats, though the other day the pool has a skim of ice on it!

A little more ice on the pool 2015-03-29.jpg

 

All the best,

That pool here would be a hockey rink 10 months out of the year.

In retirement you will find that you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

 

In fact, some of the old tricks become rather painful.

I've made my contributions to the business world.

 

Now I'm content to leave it to the younger folks to repair the damage.

Retirement is not for sissies.

 

Only us older folks are strong enough to endure it.
