Hello, It's been refreshing reading and now I'm writing. Here's my short story.
I retired the Special Operations Forces after 24 years and decided to start teaching fifth graders. I lasted three years before the frustration of my hearing loss (too many guns from too many helicopters) caused me to become a statistic. (most teachers quit within five years)
My wife still teaches (first grade) and my two boys are in High School.
We are financially able for me to not work but I feel guilty for it.
I have spent time and invested money in job searching but I am coming to realize that nothing out there really gets me fired up. The boys like having dad around as does my wife.
At this point I feel like I am waiting for the boys to move on (3yrs) and for my wife to stop working so we can buy the RV and disappear.
Problem is I am only 44 and I feel guilty, can't relate to old friends, and have a constant nagging feeling of being a bum. Please help me find a good hobby or suggest some part time work I can look into.
Thanks......time to take the kids to school...........
