Boredom

I haven't posted in a while.  Now that I'm six months into retirement I've noticed that on days where nothing is scheduled, I am bored and not terribly interested in watching television.  It feels a little like depression.  My gut reaction was to schedule more things, but that just seems like an escape.  One thing I've tried to do, with some but not a lot of success is be more present in the moment.  Dive into the book when I'm reading, focus on the television show, football game etc when watching TV.  I've got volunteer activities scheduled 2-3 days per week and try to go to the gym regularly.  I think I need to sit and figure out what I want as well as do the things that need doing.  In a strange way, I do more things when I'm busy than when I'm idle.
