I suggest you also find someone to do the house cleaning and other sundry chores.

Oh yes....retire from yard work, house work and all other work.....true paradise. I had a friend who was a housewife, did not have a job outside the home. When her husband announced he was retiring from work she told him if he got to retire she did also. So...no more house work or cooking unless she choose to do so. I was amazed but it worked. They hired a maid to come in once a week, hired a lawn company and though they didn't eat out every meal her husband discovered he loved to cook! What a retirement. Too bad they didn't know about TV. They would have loved it and probably would have chosen a CYV with zero maintenance yard.
