Title: Once You Retire - Weekends, Holidays, They Are All The Same
Post by: Henry on January 17, 2009, 08:29:00 AM

My family from Bellows Falls is coming up this weekend because the boys have the day off from school on Monday.  When I heard that, I thought, January 19th, what holiday is that??  Neither Maryann or I knew what it was, so checked the calendar to find out it was Martin Luthor King Day.

Fortunately, Maryann and I both have our Pill Boxes marked Monday through Saturday and provided we don't take the pills on the wrong day, we can usually tell what day of the week it is by looking at our Pill Boxes. 

Maryann, when she gets up in the morning, goes to the kitchen counter, grabs her morning pills and puts them in a paper towel, and usually tells me what day of the week it is.  I used to love my job, but never had a problem knowing very quickly what day of the week it was, or how many work days left in the week.

It all sounds good to me.  Unfortunately, I have to work for quite a few more years.
Besides not really being sure of "which day it is", I wonder if I'll care so much as to "what time is it"?

Once you retire there are only a few different times - Bed Time, Lunch Time, Dinner Time, Nap Time and you try to work the extra times in between these important ones.
