December11, 2011. Paradise Village, Mexico. Together.

It is a good thing that Ken and I have a good time together because we spend a lot of time with only each other.  We have observed couple married many years who don't seem to enjoy each other, when they find themselves retired.   One friend of Ken's from the hospital retired and the couple moved into a retirement community.  Within six months, the couple divorced.   It made sense.    They had both worked hard and raised the children but they had never spent much time together so when they were together all the time they discovered that they did not like each other.  In fact, the wife could not stand being with the husband.

Ken and I are fortunate.  Even though we really only spent vacations together, we have always enjoyed each others company.  Now that we are retired, we find our skill sets complement each other.   And being together suits us, which is a good thing, because we certainly spend a lot of time together.
