QUESTIONS
What’s your favorite way to spend a day off? If you’re retired, what’s something you now include in your schedule that you dreamed about while employed?

Now that Covid isn’t so strictly monitored and folks can go out and about again, are you into after-work happy hours?

What physical traits do you share with your relatives? (Example:  I have my mother’s nose)

How long does it take you to decide if you like someone or not

Here are my answers:

What’s your favorite way to spend a day off? If you’re retired, what’s something you now include in your schedule that you dreamed about while employed?
When I was working, a day off meant a lie in, or field trip somewhere. Now being retired I can do that any day.
I never really thought about what I’d do in retirement though, but now I’m here, I don’t know how I managed to find the time to work as there just never seems to be enough hours in the day!  Still, we can walk along the beach every day so that’s a bonus!

Now that Covid isn’t so strictly monitored and folks can go out and about again, are you into after-work happy hours?
I never was and I am more crowd conscious than ever now.

What physical traits do you share with your relatives? (Example:  I have my mother’s nose)
I am my mother, though people say I am like my maternal grandmother.

Photos: left me at 8, centre Mum at 94,  right my grandmother as a young woman.

How long does it take you to decide if you like someone or not.
Usually within five minutes. Hubby says I’m scary.

GRATITUDE SECTION
Feel free to share some wisdom you live by.

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too. On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

    Hubby is retired, I’m still working. I find it very frustrating on the weekends as I’m rushing around and he’s so laid back. Drives me up the wall

    I had a plan and so far it is working out! More time for poetry, WP, art – including ceramics, and visiting with friends and family! Of course I’m also working some very part-time hours. This last week I put in all of 1.5 hours! Just about enough to fill the gas tank!
