Question for Retirees: did you have any SURPRISES after you retired? Was it what you expected? Are you spending your time as you thought, or is it different than your gameplan? My husband and I are retiring in 2 years and I'm curious.
My husband and I retired summer of 07 and have enjoyed each others company to the fullest by selling our home and moving into our motor home and traveling the country. As I write this we are in DC traffic headed to Ocean City, MD and then down the Eastern Shore of Virginia. Life is good.
Great article. When my husband retires, I plan to go back to work, since I've been a SAHM for the past 23 years. I'm going to have to get older, but I refuse to get OLD.

Perfect timing, I will become a retiree on April 10th . It is great to have Spark People as a tool for healthy living.
