Some find leaving the work world behind quite difficult. I hope I can help you adjust.
Welcome to Island Time, where clocks mean NOTHING you don't want them to anymore!
I started making the adjustment a year ago. I get up when I want. Go to bed when I want. And I work or play as I want.
I was recently out, and I looked down at my watch. When had it stopped working???? Now, it's a mere decoration.
My aim with this site is to try and help people become more relaxed as they adjust to free time.
For years, when my vacation approached, it became a joke among my friends to ask if I were on Island Time yet. YES, I am, and I'm loving every minute of it. I have always been a reader, but since retirement I am amazed by the number of books I had long wished to read are now read. My writing-- something that was mostly sidelined as my teaching career was in swing-- is back in ever-increasing spells.
I hope to impart a bit of positive attitude here as well. After years of successfully reaching and teaching some of the most "difficult" students, I realized my greatest gift: calming angry teenagers.
Calming adults? No problem....
Happy vacation/Retirement. I hope you can stop and smell the coffee with me a bit......jh
