Bit of background. I retired four years prior to my husband. He retired last year . A couple of settling months but on a while it is good .
However......my whole routine has changed
Prior to his retirement
Wake up about 8 am dog with me and read a bit .
About 9 am If laundry done the night before put dryer on and hang out other clothes
Potter around doing general house chores.
Work on boxes of stuff from my parents place
Get showered changes etc
Have lunch read a bit
Husband home at about 3.30
Talk to him a bit do joint chores
Have dinner (he has always cooked )
Watched TV ... read a book and eventually sleep about midnight
Now we don't get up till ten or 11 am
I get dressed ....read..watch tv (more tv in the last few months than in years )
Eventually have dinner. Very few chores done during the day
Then I start my Non regular chores. Clearing mum and dad's boxes etc
Just curious if anyone else has had such a dramatic change in routine ?
Come winter (I am in Aust ) it may change again
