Good news today.
I am the newest member of The Blogging Boomers Carnival, the longest running boomer blog carnival on the Internet.
The Blogging Boomers Carnival is a collection of outstanding, top-ranked boomer bloggers who speak to different boomer issues and . . . Oh, I hate this word – retirement.
Life Coach Anne Harrison passionately helps people get the happiest, healthiest, most vital productive, energetic, prosperous and fulfilling retirement possible. Rhea Becker, The Boomer Chronicles, a 50 something Baby Boomer, examines mid life crisis, ennui in America and other compelling ideas, and Sightings at 60, covers life, finance, retirement and other concerns of people who realize that somehow they have grown up. Is this the definition of retirement?
As faithful readers know, I have been writing about our expat adventures since moving to Dubai 15 months ago. It started as a way to keep the brain cells working as I struggled, after 25 years of working, to adjust to what I refused to accept – my retirement.
So I started writing. And I have enjoyed every moment of it. This past January I made the conscious decision to make travel writing my new career. I think this my 9th career, if you count motherhood. I have had just a really hard time deciding what to be when I grow up!
