After retirement I `started' a Handyman for Seniors hobby. My typical client is an 80 year old widow who is trying to stay in her house of some 50 years but by herself. Sometimes she is lucky to have willing and able children in the area but often times not. I also try to ride my electric bicycle when the weather is decent. Managed 1000 miles last season. BTW I am 84 years old.
Retired after 33 years with the postal service, but definitely not retired from life. I’m on my bicycle 5 and 6 days a week for at least an hour each time. I’ve recently lost 40 lbs with another 25 to go, and that has brought my blood pressure down to acceptable levels without a prescription. Being retired just opens up the possibilities of doing other things with my life that I didn’t have time for when working full time. I definitely recommend it.

Wow, Richard, what a great example you are!
I'll never retire totally

That is so inspiring, David! Thanks for commenting.
