Thankyou..Talking to others,having hobbies is important,as is,as you say,keeping some work on..Since doing domestic work,it is interesting getting to know couples and seeing them interact at home.Some seem miserable together,yet think it correct to spend 24/7 together.Others in there 80s are as close as the day they married..God luv em.My idea is to go off biking the world and my wife will visit me then go home to see the grand kids...Hardest thing in the world to appreciate what you have at times,and the best thing in life is to love and be loved..Life so gets in the bloody way of smelling the roses.If you have outside hobbies and interests, which it seems you do you should be fine. You could also consider right sizing your work. Which could be something you can do with your current job, or it could be a part time low stress, low responsibility job.
Crikey..i contribute to all of the above,except we have no pets.I also do all the cleaning, cooking, gardening, ironing, shopping, animal care and I even put the bins out because the precious little dumpling doesn't like the smell!
That's why you're a keeper and still married!Crikey..i contribute to all of the above,except we have no pets.
Pets ! One thing if you retire is to make sure you have enough money, if you have a pension, it will be a fixed amount coming in, no more doing more jobs or overtime to cover unexpected expenses. My money is dwindling, another 7-8 years before pension time, and just found out the dog needs an op costing £5k and no insurance.Crikey..i contribute to all of the above,except we have no pets.
Still makes me chuckle after 20 odd years...My first wife binned me for her boss..Told me he had charisma and a bandana...I was convinced it happened because I did insufficient washing up...LMAO..Not sure who was more tapped!!.That's why you're a keeper and still married!
