I retired 3.5 years ago. I sew on something most everyday. I have bought more because I usually get a BOM or two every year. You will make time to sew if you want. I do take more classes, go to sit & sews, and Retreats because I can. Retirement is what you make it and I love it. (Worked 40 years). I have 7 small grandchildren from 3 children. I do not keep them more than once a week from any family. They have learned to get on the calendar early. I don’t bump my monthly quilt groups to babysit. I think they respect that.
