Retirement Jitters

In July and August, I did not feel retired because it was summer holidays and I had my full pay.

In September and October I did not feel retired because I was in France and I had set money aside.

I am starting to feel retired.

I am not sure.

Sometimes I like it.  Often times I wonder if we'll have enough.

Two boys in university.

Yearly travel to Europe.

Did I mention I have about 1/3 of a full pension?

All my years working at the university... no pension... just RRSPs.

I never noticed that food cost so much.

Now, I have to look at what I buy at the grocery store.

I'm not sure about this. I haven't felt poor in a long time...

Thank goodness I am teaching this winter.

I will endeavor to believe that the Universe will take care of me (with my help).

Amen.
