the transition for me was easy. I just maintained the same essential structure and just substituted activities. In part it has to do with having good time management skills in the first place. i do, my wife does not so a part of my plan everyday is keeping her on time

As we say here I'm her clock and she's my compass because I am directionally challenged;albeit I got TV down pat
Our days are busier than we desire sometimes.
I do honestly miss working and had I not a medical issue back then I would have never retired. Ironically I'm healthier today then i was back when I retired.
Personal Best Regards:
