Congratulations! It's been almost 1 year since I retired but I must say it's not what I expected. After working for so long, it's been hard to adjust to not having a schedule. And I don't seem to be doing all the things I always thought I would. I am slowly downsizing, but not at the pace I had hoped.
I am sure things would be different if we were in TV full time. But getting from here to there is taking longer than I want it to.
Everyone has told me it takes a while to adjust. You are retiring, and moving, both major life changes. So give yourself and hubby some slack if things aren't always so smooth. Try to enjoy the ride and keep looking forward. It will all work out!
