Because I am now home all day, I had to do something to fill those hours while still taking care of my medical problems. I have lots of things that I can do and projects to work on as my health allows. It would take me 500 years to do everything that I would like to do and what I do is a form of occupational therapy. It takes about an hour of keyboarding each morning to get my fingers limber enough that I can move them freely. If I had nothing other than to eat breakfast and then sit in a chair the rest of the day, I would go nuts and be in incredible pain to boot! I plan on working at our on-line store till I die. I’m also wanting to write several different books, etc. Whether you ‘retire’ or not, you have to keep as busy as your body allows because it is good for you.

She took the bus back and forth every day because she never saw any need to learn to drive. My great uncle worked up until his mid 80′s. when he retired, he took up roller blading. If you love it, keep don’t it. Don’t let an arbitrary number tell you that you have to stop.
