Six weeks was hardly enough time off. It felt like I had only taken one week off. I got a good sense of what it would be like to be retired and having the free time. At first I didn't do anything. I just laid around the house and watched the olympics. Then, I started getting out and swimming with Alejandro and doing other activities. There were times when he was sleeping and Rabeka was at a scrapbooking or Mary Kay meeting and I was bored out of my mind. I think before I retire for real I need to have a project to occupy my time, otherwise I'll go insanse and be one of those old people that get a job as a WalMart greeter just to have something to do during the day.
If I were to retire right now, I would most likely work on finishing my novel (for information on that, go to my other blog http://cameronharrison.blogspot.com/) and then work on my golf game. I've always wanted to try my hand at becoming a professional golfer. Of course, I would also spend as much time as possible with Alejandro, Rabeka and any future kids that we have. This is assuming that money was not an issue. Since money is still an issue, I still work. But one day ...
