24/7

Bill is retired. Bill is at home now. Bill is home 24/7 as they say. We are both at home 24/7.
I have been more or less retired for almost 3 years. I have carved out a niche in my alone time. I have found hobbies that occupy my daytime.

I have worries. I know that these worries are not new ones to many a retired folk. They are however new for Bill and I.

In approximately one month, Bill and I will have been married for 33 years. In that time we have never lived 24/7 in each others life for more than a few weeks of holidays.

We are embarking on a new voyage. As I see this voyage, it has no end date.
The ship of “24//7” has not charted a course. It will follow the wind as it blows us out to retirement. It has a skeleton crew and we are about to lift anchor.
