Retirement Too much Extra Time

"Retiring is easy. Then comes the hard part -- staying that way. "
- BILL WARD, Star Tribune

I have a problem, I started to read a Tom Clancy book and three weeks later, I am still reading the same book. I finally gave up on the book and purchased a used Robert Ludlum book.

What a great problem.

The days can be long; being a perpetual traveler is the same as being retired. There is too much extra time. I read books to occupy my extra time, learn about other places and just drift away. I truly could not imagine traveling without books, however recently I realized one bad book could make time come to a stop. I normally love Tom Clancy book, however I believe now that he works with other writers to write the books they have lost some edge.

I am amusing myself today, trying to learn from Retired people, what they do with their extra time. I have been off into google search world, pulling on that never ending thread.

Funny, most of the pages explain how to get part time jobs; it is difficult to find pages on how to stay retired. Truly the page were of little value, the majority of writers just ! revert into some type of daily todo list make the person have a "New J ob,"

"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss."
