==================
Journaling: How have I changed in the last 13 years... that is an interesting question. The years fly by so fast that you don’t even notice, unless you make a conscious effort! January 2013 I was 5 months into my retirement. I was thinner, and I had just lost my Dad 2 months before. It was an emotional time for me losing Dad. We had a lot of things to take care of which kept me busy. I was very happy to be retired and not worry about having to work at the same time. Now looking back, I am grateful I retired when I did and have not looked back on that decision. 13 years later, I am still thrilled to be retired and enjoy life doing what we want to do, when we want and living life as we want. I am very grateful!
Love the sense of time you've conveyed in the circle. Love the restful colour pallete, love the sense of peace within you both then and now.
 
Thank you for sharing. Last night this challenge seemed overwhelming. Waking up to a few examples, it now seems exciting. I'm ready to go. I love your layout. Your words in particular have helped me.
 
Beautiful, Christa! I like that circle design, it seems so perfect to convey a passage of time. It's wonderful and the then & now photos are always fun, especially when we look back so many years. I can't believe you've been retired for 13 years now! How time flies. Thank you for sharing a little snippet of your journey for my challenge.

Thank you Lisa!! I retired a week before i turned 51. My goal was to retire at 50 as my Mom passed at 54 and i wasn't going to work and not enjoy. Thank you for your sweet comments!
 
I love how the faded colors and gentle textures give this page a nostalgic feeling. Thank you for sharing your story!
 
I just love your style! This is somehow clean AND artsy at the same time. The huge circle is awesome. And you are very photogenic- love your photos!
