It’s a Retired Life New Year

I have discovered that I have been a bit neglectful of this blog. I had the idea to start a blog when I retired. To share my thoughts, experiences and ideas. Well, the first 3 months have proven to me that I need to have a bit more of a schedule. ‘

I think it might be a normal thing once you start retirement, to sit back for a bit and enjoy the freedom. You take time to make lists of things you want to do, places you want to go and you , sometimes, just sit. The lists become long and you look at them as work. But perhaps, it doesn’t have to be. They could be milestones of achievement or goals to achieve. It’s all in the viewpoint.

So now that 2024 is here, how do I want it to go? I believe that you can create your life the way you want. That the universe will give you everything that you want/need/or desire. Maybe that’s what 2024 will be for me. A further exploration of my spiritual side, a la Wayne Dyer, or Gabby Bernstein. A chance to explore what connection to the universe really means for me.

That I think will be the theme, but I also need to paint the powder room, fix the deck, paint the front hall, learn to use my camera. I have a few places I want to visit and a few books I want to read. I probably should exercise more as well.

It is really harder than I thought to keep a blog. Keeping up with ideas , writing etc. Probably because I am not sure why I started it. I thought I wanted just to document my thoughts and ideas as I go through this new phase of my life. But now I think maybe I should have a focus or goal.

Confusing I know. Right now, as I sit here typing, I am listening to the birds in the yard, enjoying a hot cup of tea and setting up quotes for new windows. Quite the retired life!!!
