Woodswoman, this thread resonates with all of us over-70 retirees....It highlights the mind vs body struggles that come with aging. My wife is still working also, and I'm keenly aware that she is now the breadwinner. I do have to fight the feelings of inadequacy, even though I know she doesn't feel that way.
Bullseye, Prof -- 100% spot on. This is exactly what my sweetheart is going through.
His intellect and spirit are those of a much younger guy. Many of my friends are shocked when they learn his age, because he doesn't look (except for his hair) or act it.
But his stamina lets him know why he's retired. He finds that exasperating.
