[quote=Anonymous]The short and very true answer: whatever I want. Get up without an alarm, eat breakfast, and have coffee. Exercise, gardening, read, travel, go to my expanding list of medical appointments, volunteer, see friends, watch movies, go to art museums, go to the beach, check out different walking trails, watch the birds, try new recipes, chat with the neighbors, talk to family, take classes. Household chores are no longer jammed into the commute home and weekends. Those get done during the day at a slower pace. There's an adjustment: after living most/all of your life on a schedule of school, work, kids, etc., there's no schedule. And it's learning that the daily small pleasures and overall sense of being content are wonderful. [/quote]
