"One thing I can tell them is it won't be taking long vacations every few weeks, cruises or spending the winter down south some where because my income isn't going to allow that. I am already realizing I need to watch my spending on things I buy to work with and do projects around the home and farm. We have been blessed and had essential things. Always had food on the table, electricity, water and a warm house"  I'll add health care.

So, I'm not alone.

One thing about retirement, it gives me time to do the things that need to be done and done both right and completely rather than hurried up because there are other things to do.

Only now I started doing woodworking and that shop is expanding and as people see what I've done there have been inquires.
