Hi everyone,I'm relatively new to these community forums, so please bear with me as I figure things out!I’m curious how many of us are over 50 and still working a full-time job during the week. With a full-time schedule, finding time for social activities, hobbies, or meeting new people usually gets squeezed into my weekends along with house/yardwork and errands.Since I'm based in the Brighton, Michigan area, I was wondering what kind of weekend activities, events, or local AARP chapters have available nearby that actually fit into a working person's schedule?If you're still working full-time, how do you balance your weekends, and have you found any good local weekend AARP events that keep you connected?
