Something i've noticed. Note to retirees.

I retired in 2020 after 46 years of work, and I have noticed something that I wonder if I am alone here.

Ever since retirement I've had dreams lots of them specific to the job I do. It may be set in somewhere I've never been (a made up place), but still they come. I can understand for a few months, but now? Have you found this, it's really odd?

Letting your mind sorting out for a few months, but *three years later*

Curious rather than anything!!!

Same. Retired in 2020. Had dreams all the time about work. It went on for months until I started doing more activities, and then it faded. Are you keeping your mind and body active with other things ?
