I may have hinted in past posts that I have recently retired and started down a new path in my life.
I worked for 28 years at one profession starting at the bottom until at the end I was in charge.
But as with everything all good things must come to an end and it was time to leave. I was in a very technical feild and paid a good salary. I use to say that if  we made a mistake it wasnt going to hurt anybody or changee their life.

     Well I have moved on and it feels good to try something different. To have a different schedule and in my case to pursue something that feeds a different part of who I am. Iam lucky that I am finacially able to do this but I have also given up a lot of what I had before and I have found that I dont miss much of what I gave up except of course HBO ...I do wish I had HBO back...oh well.

     Now I'm working part time a senior living facility and I drive the residents to doctors appointments,shopping and sometimes just out for a ride. I am paid a small percentage of what I made before retiring yet my responsiblilty in real terms is greater. I literaly have people's lives in my hands every day. I do enjoy the human interaction. Seeing these people who are a bit older and physically challenged as real people. I try to see what they were like as younger people and what their lives and the world was like when they were young. I find every day fascinating and with their help I learn something new each day. And at this time in my life I wasnt entirely sure that was possible.Re
