Peaceful Retirement Living

Barbara: Hello and welcome to Peaceful Retirement Living. I’m a Houston grandmother of three, happily settling into the gentle rhythm of retirement life in a cozy 55+ apartment community with my little rescue chihuahua, Bonnie Rae. After years of busy schedules and responsibilities, I’ve discovered the joy of slower mornings, simple pleasures, and finding happiness in everyday moments. These days you’ll often find me taking photos of flowers and little treasures I notice on my walks, tending plants, watching basketball, trying new hobbies, or enjoying a quiet cup of coffee. This blog is my cozy corner of the internet where I share retirement life, home comforts, hobbies, family moments, lessons learned, and the beauty of ordinary days. I believe retirement isn’t about slowing down—it’s about finally having time to enjoy life in a more meaningful way. Whether you’re retired, dreaming of retirement, or simply craving a calmer life, I’m glad you’re here. Come in, get comfortable, and enjoy the peaceful journey with me.
