I often wonder what it’s actually going to be like when I retire. When I was just starting out in my career, the idea of retiring was far different. It was like this far off destination where I sat in my recliner and ate all my favorite foods, took naps and just did generally nothing. Oh and there would be plenty of recreational marijuana use as well. This was my ideal for retirement when I was young. Now that I’m less than a decade from winding up my career, retirement has a much different ring to it. First off, I didn’t spend the last five years getting fit so I could sit in a recliner smoking cannabis and eating all day. That’s out. I want my retirement to be active and as adventurous as it can possibly be. That said, I still know that I’ll be getting my sativa, indica and hybrid strains on as well. And I would love it if most days, if not every day, started off with a trip to the cannabis cafe. This is a place that’s been in town for about three years. The folks that run the local cannabis spot opened it and it is a hit with me. For sure, I love all the cannabis edibles that I’ve tried so far. But that place also comes with the best vibes and some incredible coffee. Honestly, I don’t think there is a better way to start my day. However, while I’m still working, I only get to linger at the cannabis cafe a few times a month. But those days are glorious and a preview of what retirement actually will be like!
