Well, my life plans turned up on their heads during Covid. I had planned to work at Stampin' Up! until I dropped...maybe until I was 70 or so. But my job outgrew me and I just wasn't up to learning a new job or going back to the call center. Plus my house and especially my yard was more than I could handle. On top of that I felt the need to move close to my daughter's family with my two youngest grandchildren. So, I retired at 66 and stayed with my son and his fiancé for 1-1/2 years and now I'm in Montana.
My son-in-law bought part of his family farm in the Mission Valley in Montana. These are the mountains I get to see every morning. We have a calf, 2 dogs, multiple cats, chickens, sheep and one lose rabbit from previous owner. In the last week we have also been visited by a bear, a mountain lion with her cub..,oh my!
There is always something to do. I'm so tired of sorting stuff. I moved from a two bedroom house to a tiny house. There are boxes and boxes to sort. I have probably gotten two thirds of the way through.
Another big thing is working on relationships. I am again immersed in people relationships. I thought I was pretty saintly when I lived alone for 10 years. Haha. Oh was I wrong. Well, I believe we are here to work on ourselves and learn to love our fellowman. I have come a far way but know I still have quite a ways to go.
