Have been basically fulltiming now for almost a year and while I love the travel, people we meet, and yes, the 'free' time etc., I also am having a bit of trouble 'slowing down' from my life of full time work as an educator and Type 'A' personality...always on the go.
When I am parked at one location for more than a few days, I have a tendency to get very antsy.....to do 'something'....
DW and I do hike a bit, have bikes to ride, sightsee in the area we're in and do those things that you would expect to do when in a new area etc.
But I have a hard time just doing 'nothing'......for more than say, one day. DW loves to just 'relax'. The thought of parking my 5er in an rv park for a month or even several months makes me uncomfortable, yet it seems that many of you on this forum as fulltimers, seem to do this just fine.
Perhaps it will take time....I definitely have considered camp hosting/volunteering etc to give me that 'something' to do at least several days per week. Full time work in an rv park, or such is not what I would do.
I am sure a 'shrink' could help me, but how about some 'free' suggestions/feedback/advice from you fulltimers out there.... how do you just slow down and 'stop and smell the roses' !
