Retirement can’t come soon enough !

Hello 👋  Monica here from Riverside, California. Excited to make new friends 🙂  On my days off work I enjoy taking short trips, walking, hiking, baking, rearranging after my Sulcata tortoise & feeding most of the wildlife that appears in my backyard 🐿️ 🐦

Well wishes everyone 💞 Stay cool 🧊 😎

Hi, Monica.  I recently retired, a month ago to be exact.  I live not too far from Riverside.  Hope we can chat and find common ground.
