if you are going to do something take your time give it your all and do your best!

Plus you are your own boss, so do it just like you want.

My brother asked me what I was going to do today. I said "Nothing."  He says, "You did that yesterday."  I said, "I know, I wasn't finished."

Like the Joe Walsh song.

 

They say I'm lazy but it takes all my time
(Everybody say oh, yeah) (Oh, yeah)
I keep on going, guess I'll never know why
Life's been good to me so far
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yes so very true... For me reliving the past started at about 57....

Everything that I have known and remember "in some cases haunting" has come back in reflection while awake or dreaming

Life is one Big Trip...******* Crazy Shit...

Still trying to figure out what to with retirement, or is having a plan even necessary? The most enlightening thing in my life was when I realized that you don't have to believe in silly rituals and dogma just because everyone else does. 

 

Good point.

 

What to do?

 

Listen to music

Read

Write

Paint & Sketch

Take photos

Listen to music while reading or writing or painting or sketching or taking photos.

Hike

Explore new neighborhoods, towns, cities; photograph interesting buildings and houses and get arrested for "casing the joint."

Explore new wilderness areas.  Frogs will fall silent when they realize you are close.

Don't surprise a cougar (they wander through our town, but hey, L.A., too.  "We were here first!" -- A. Lion

Woodworking

Astrophotography

Collect microscopic life, and photograph it through a microscope.  Big prints look good over the fireplace -- protozoa, the smallest metazoa, etc. Rotifers look great over the fireplace:Bdelloid rotifer Negative Phase contrast by Robert Berdan ©

 

Meditate

Contemplate the Universe, deism, theism, quantum mechanics, string theory, M theory.

Classes are a great place to meet people.  I met my wife in one, and we have been (mostly) joyfully together for 51years (married for the last 46).
