    QuiltingD, we'll have to meet at Suzy's or somewhere else.

    I do have girl time anytime I want it. I have a friend who will go with me shopping anytime anywhere, and my hubby is glad to have me do what I want. He has so many hobbies and interests that he will never get bored or want to hang around bothering me. We also really enjoy spending time together, so I am looking forward to that.

    My DH has been retired for just 2 years and he loves it. We have not been able to do all the traveling we want, but he keeps busy doing his family research and making me things for my sewing room. I was used to having him home before he retired as he was home by 11:30 AM anyway. He also hikes up mountains, so is gone all day or even a couple of days. Gives me a litle break and time alone!!!

    Enjoy each other!

    Retirement is wonderful. Enjoy it all you can. Hubby has been retired for 3 years now and it is heaven. I just cook..he does everything else...well He vacumes and I wash the floors and do the bathrooms but that's it girls....I have more time to quilt and paint and make dolls and read this lovely board...and he is happy to do it too...
