My Dilemma

About 30 years ago, an aunt retired from work. Her work life had been very active, an hour commute by train each way plus traveling from the station to her office and back to the train each day. When she finally retired, she used to tell me how she was never bored and she was always busy with “paper work”.

I have now been retired for fifteen years. In the beginning I did a lot of volunteer work, attended classes, served on local and regional boards, traveled to faraway places and enjoyed my freedom.

Eight years ago, the life I was enjoying so much changed. So here I am trying to fit everything into one day and finding it impossible. I have become a late riser which shortens my day. I must go to exercise two or three times a week which makes me tired and then I don’t feel like working on anything when I get home.

So here I am trying to decide which task I should do first. Should I write for my website? Should I get rid of the clutter? Should I spend time talking on the phone with my friends and family? I hope I can set up some kind of a working schedule soon.
