In 2003 I retired at the ripe old age of 59. As a type A I quickly realized that, I lived in a neighborhood where I was the only one who was retired. I decided to become a real estate agent and be my own boss... Real estate agents work on weekends and at night. Not for me. I was lucky enough to be contacted by a friend and went back to work in my chosen field. That lasted a year. I retired again and moved to a 55+ community in Texas. This is where I was able to make the transition to retirement. You made the right decision. You just need to refocus you energy. Join some clubs. Get some exercise. Travel and enjoy life. I found my passion in Pickle ball. Get a hobby. You will begin to make the transition mentally and you will enjoy life a lot more. I now live in NC but am working to convince my wife to move to TV. I am looking forward to playing Pickle ball and joining the woodworking group TV possibly in the next year.
