Don't feel a bit guilty. This is a VERY different experience being on the younger end of the age curve. I have been here 14 months and some days I still ask myself.... what the heck am i doing in a 'retirement community'??? I find it beautiful, safe, with endless things to do.... but the demographics are definitely different. Also, with every tick of every second of every day I'm inching closer to the OTHER end of the spectrum (and so are you)_
