one thing many observed here in TV that they did NOT leave behind after they retired is not being in a hurry.

I don't think it is any where near a majority but there are enough of them to create unpleasant situations at times in line at grocery stores, pharmacy but especially behind the wheel.

So like the others have pointed out, there is no schedule that is a MUST. I use the do what I want, when or if I want. I walk away from those who seem to have a need for a "schedule" and do everything by the clock. To them I would say until they get away from the routine need to do things by schedule or clock (except take your medicine) you have not really retired yet.

And oh yes, do not forget to smile. And even a bigger smile at the few crotchety types that seem to come sometimes too frequently with us elders. The bigger the smile the more nuts it drives them.
