Hopefully, you've been planning for your retirement for some time now. If you have, you will reap those rewards now. This isn't about
money. This is about clutter
and things you've needed to do for a long time. If you do need to straighten out any business dealings,
take care of that as soon as possible.
If you're married,
make sure your spouse knows where all the important papers are and consider both of you making living wills so there
will never be any confusion if one of you becomes
incapacitated. Organization is the real key for anyone's life to run smoothly.
Consider volunteer work but choose something that you will enjoy as well as the benefit you
will bring to others. Sometimes people just
continue to do what they did before retirement, only with more time to give to those things.
Take advantage of
the specials offered to senior citizens such as discounts for meals and special "senior citizens day" sales. Under no
circumstances let anyone you don't know talk you into
letting them do work for you or conduct any kind of monetary transaction with a
stranger.
The simpler your life is the easier it will be. Emotional clutter can be
as messy as physical clutter even if it's someone else's baggage.
Don't allow others to dump on you or upset you by constantly bringing you their
problems.
Retirement can be the best time of our lives. Most of us look forward to it for many years. Now is the time to be able to relax and enjoy
the things you haven't had time to.
