Is this what retirement is like??

February 1st, 2007 at 06:29 pm

I wonder what it will be like when my husband really retires? We got up this morning and he could not go to work because of the snow on the grounds and roads.
He made his breakfast.
He completely cleaned out the refrigerator.
He vaccumed.
He mopped.
He decided to draw on some house plans for a house he "might" build for us someday.
He made his lunch.
He then decided that the roads look much better, so he left for work.

It is a lot cheaper when he is not here. He complained about how cold he was, so I turned up the heat by 2 degrees. Then he decided we should run the hot water heater for an hour or two, so we would have hot water if the power went off.

I love him to pieces, but I am glad he has gone to work!!

    hehehehe! from what i've heard from others, this pretty much sums up retirement when the novelty wears off. perhaps he should get a hobby like building birdhouses for when it's snowy outside Big Grin

    I am afraid his hobby will be much more expensive. He will want to build hot rod cars!! Expensive ones.

    You know, your hubby sounds like a hyperactive workaholic.

    I doubt he can ever stop. Big Grin
    Which isn't a bad thing really. I'm sure he'll find some way to expend all the energy he has. Oh wait, but it'll be expensive. Right. That's bad. Big Grin

    I agree with you. My husband doesn't watch money either and leaves lights on everywhere he is. He also is the first one to turn the heat on and complains because I have turned the water heater off and forgot to turn it back home. We'll probably have to start a new career when they retire.
    HEE HEE
