Since I don't know what retirement will be like, I don't think I can answer. Definitely don't want to keep doing what I do (office manager) but to not have a reason to get up in the morning scares me.
I have a reason to get up in the morning as I assume most retired folks do. if you're idea of the typical retiree is sitting around watching TV all day then you're sadly mistaken. I meant it when I said that I'm busier now than when I was working for a living.
Being in the people business, I see both ends of the spectrum. I would hazard a guess, it's more like 50-50. 50% seem to be super busy like you and enjoying every minute of retirement. And the other 50% their life seems to revolve around the TV, and slot machines at the casino.
well, to each their own. we (in a normal year) travel 6-mos in the MH, 3-mos in the spring and 3-mos in the fall. we leave the summer for those who have no other choice. I still have a part-time job (can't call being a substitute school crossing guard actual work) and I usually end up "working" between 5 and 15-day each month. I was volunteering at our local history museum as a docent until they went to a full time staff, I'm active with my ham radio club, I earned my Sport Pilot certificate 2-yrs ago and am working on my Private Pilot cert...and that's just a slice of what I've been doing with my time. I DID declare a "personal holiday" over the weekend and vegged out. hey, I gotta relax some time! :)
