My husband and I recently had the discussion about what we think our retirement life in TV will be like. We've already met many wonderful people and know we will not lack for friends or things to do, but we are realistic enough to know those 2 things alone will not completely fulfill us. We plan to look for opportunities to be of help to others,

whether inside TV or out, in order to complete the circle so to speak.

Hoping you find joy in your retirement, Tomcat. It appears as if you are seeking direction in all the right places.
Thank you. I might have left my job, but do not feel like I should be retired yet. Maybe I will enjoy my retirement when I am about 67. I just feel like at my age of 59, too young to retire and not to do anything anymore. I do not know if I will ever be able to gain able employment anymore like I had, but right now have a little part time job.
