..Think of that ONE THING You wanted "To Be" since your were a child...and go for it/train for it/study for it..get in to it !
Sitting in the house is bad for you and bad for -relationships-

I know cause I was forced out of my profession(s) by disability in 1992....

Now days I'm heading down the last trail due to cancer...but I'm still riding...and a good/cheap.. guy to have hanging around--because drinking YOUR BEER makes me piss blood !

Jus sayin there's a lot of entertainment out there, dont let "retirement" dull you down !

The truth is, the days of working somewhere for 20-30 years or more are over, at least for most people under 50. It's the new economy. Different employers and careers over a lifetime. Some say most people will have several. I was a man ahead of my time I guess.

Sam I am getting forced out as well because of the nerve damage on my left side! I can only move so much then it goes numb. Other then that my health is ok,My heart issue was just a clot in the heart! All heart stuff is good :) Knee has been repaired. And I will enjoy life as we do not know when our last day will be! Wishing you the best
