Have you adjusted to civilian life, such that you are enjoying it?

Even though I was Reserve, it was tough to give up over 22yrs of Military service. Now I got my forge and play in the fire. I also really enjoy my job, shoeing horses. Got lots of really good customers!! I've also taken up writing as a different hobby - lovin it.

Next September will be 10 yrs since I have been retired from the Army. I will say I have adjusted pretty well now. Didn't do to good those first 2 yrs but good now.

I have an advantage with the transition, as I was hired by a Defense Contractor, therefore allowing me to still work on post, and decelerating the separation anxiety.
