When Your Husband Retires and He’s Suddenly Around. All. The. Time.

Tips for protecting your space, while giving him a little of his own.

By Beth Graham

1. The she-shed and the man cave; every woman needs a space of her own, not to have to lock herself in the bathroom for a luittle peace and quiet (we definitely need this)

2. Hobbies matter (his may not be available in these days of COVID, and some things he wants to do are not acceptable to me)

3. Get out and about – even if you can’t go out to dinner or visit friends like you did before, you can get in the car and take a road trip, or take a class in the park

4. Find new things to do together – easier said than done, given COVID

Any ideas to add? Give me a buzz, ’cause I know I can’t be the only person dealing with this.
