Breakfast with Bubbie
Written by
Robin “Bubbie” Montgomery
Dear
Bubbie,
I
have been retired for over two years now. My wife is due to retire in 8 months.
When she finally retires we plan on traveling and I’m very anxious for her
retirement to get here.
I
have gotten in a daily routine of cleaning up the house and yards. I get my
honey-do-list done, usually, by the end of the day.
I
can’t wait for my wife to get home at the end of the day just so I have someone
to talk to.
I
have to tell you I’m going crazy with nothing to do. I’ve even considered
getting a part time job just to give me something to do. But I don’t want to
get a job just to turn around and quit in 8 months.
Can
you give me any ideas to keep me busy and sane?
Thank
you,

Dear
Bored,
Have
you considered volunteering? There are so many organizations that are desperate
for volunteers.
Figure
out what your passion is whether that be working with children, veterans, the
homeless, the disabled, hospitals, or even law enforcement.
This way you are busy, interacting with people and helping people that need you.
Here
are some links that may help:
