Couple biking in front of new house
The author and her husband posing with their home after retirement.
  • After my husband retired we decided to move to a bigger house to be more comfortable. 
  • We didn't tell anyone we were looking for a bigger house. 
  • We now have the space we need to fulfill our hobbies and passions. 

My husband retired last year, and recently, we upsized our home. For us, it was a move to what I call "rightsizing."
