RE: Forward motion and new horizons

in OCD3 years ago (edited)

Well good on you for taking that step, could not have been an easy decision @galenkp but you're a smart man, I'm sure a new path will open up OR you'll make that pathway yourself!
I was forced to leave my job when I reached a certain age but turned our garden cottage into an Airbnb about 6 months prior to retirement to supplement our corporate pensions. It worked out better than I ever dreamed of, we actually had to expand and cut one wing of our home off and turned it into a studio apartment so are now kept very busy indeed.
A hard lesson I'm currently learning is taking leadership of my health as I'm experiencing some scary issues, but that's a totally different but likely more important thing to take charge of!
Enjoy the freedom, I look forward to reading where your new path will be leading you.

I think it's great that some can take advantage of B&B or AirBnB opportunities with their homes and in your case it seems to be working well; I hope that continues.

My situation wasn't a simple decision and some care was taken of course. I'll make it work for me and am sure I'll get back to doing something eventually. Time will tell. Right at the minute I'm enjoying a little break.

I knew you had some health issues but don't know what. I hope a resolution is found quickly and you're on the mend.
