ADVENTURES, CHALLENGES, AND INSIGHTS OF A COUPLE IN EARLY RETIREMENT
I’m always looking to learn something new or for new experiences, so when a friend told me about a documentary class that was being offered via Facebook in my town, I was intrigued. I felt it was not a high cost in time or money to get a glimpse of the process of making a documentary.
After getting our condo shipshape upon our return to Mexico, we got to spend a little time getting down to the business of everyday living and having some fun: working out, massages, taking Spanish lessons, visits from friends and family, golf, and dining out. All part of Living Chapter 2, right?
Who said retirement was easy? Homeownership is no walk in the park either. While we were in France, we had decided we weren’t going to rent our condo any more. That decision lead to planning improvements and new purchases for our condo in Mexico.
We had a big agenda for this visit, mostly related to a kitchen remodel. We had one month to specify everything for the kitchen and get the cabinet order finalized. But between entertaining guests and buying stuff for the condo, we did manage some pool time.
Observant readers may have noticed our normal post-a-week cadence has been interrupted some of the time over the past few months. It has been a difficult time for my family.
