Hugs
I'm wondering if it is the physical side of change or the mental you don't like. For me it is the physical side since I find it difficult, but I am fighting it as best as I can. That is why we are building. Small changes working up to the big one planned.
When I was younger and on my own I used to love change. Summers I would work in a number of different areas. Almost everything was new. New town and stores nearby. New mountains to admire, new lakes to swim in when the day got hot. Do the job and move on to the next.
Now I don't want to travel. I'm happy to play in my Garden in summer and my shop in winter. I'm happy with the hospital handy. That never bothered me before, sometimes driving for hours to get patched up.
I'll admit that this is not what I had planned for retirement but then I didn't plan on poor health.
I still dream of travel, living in a camper and canoeing on some far away lake. But it isn't going to happen. Not unless some miracle happens. I guess there is change and then there is change. Attitude has a lot to do with how I handle it.
My brother who likes to travel and discovered motor cycles is finding it difficult to wrestle 800 pounds on two wheels anymore. It will be interesting to see how he handles it.
How does one prepare for change since it tends to blindside a person?
How are others handling change, and what are they doing for it?
I like Sunny's attitude. And if you think about it, she has made some pretty big changes in the last couple of years.
