Actually, I slept in longer for about 6 months..was surprised at how tired I had been.
Once there were no alarm clocks/set schedules/have to's in my life, I felt much more relaxed.
then, after a few years, I noticed even a haircut appt felt like a "have to" and made me tense!
As for boredom, it has never been in my life, so I wasn't worried about that.
Plenty to do or not to do , depending on mood and choice.
My reading increased 1,000% because I was not brain dead by end of working day.
And, strangely, altho the economy had dictated an early retirement from a career I really enjoyed,
I did not miss work at all. Retirement was not the huge adjustment I had hear of.
Luckily, we were able to move to an area where we could afford to live on half the income we had when working.
good luck with this new chapter in your life!!
