A surprise move to be snowbirds

 Welp, McB has come to have such awful problems with cold weather, I started looking for a senior mobile home community opportunity for next snowbird season. Found one in Punta Gorda, great looking listing, reasonable pricing. Nice park / community. Lucked out that McB's sister and BIL were in the area visiting just as I was considering making an offer. 

Anyway, bottom line is we have a place now. Upside. Downside is that the spending budget for retirement just went up by a third or so. Ouch. 

Oh, I didn't mention that? Yep. After 32 years in a professional position, last 4 performing the job remotely, it's time to let that go. Retirement commences mid-summer. Can finally manage my own time every day and every hour. Looking forward to finding new ways to be engaged and interacting with others. Should be easy in the retirement village. Have to work a little harder here at home. 

Cheers!!
