The new U3A year has begun and I hope all members are enjoying the classes in which they are enrolled. It is good to see some new faces and we all welcome you wholeheartedly. Don't forget our Coffee Mornings are on the first Monday of each month at l0am and it is an enjoyable way of getting to know each other.

We have some new classes to offer this year and on the next page we list for your ongoing information each class time and day.

I recently read that after your retirement, you think that you are going to have a lot of time to finish all of your unfinished projects. You actually spend a lot of time doing things like making a new fence, making things for the grand children or going shopping, gardening etc., the list is endless. These are all pleasant enough tasks, but you can get a bit unhappy when you see that your projects are not moving ahead as you had thought.

Now, the advice given was that you should allow yourself some time each day or maybe week to do your OWN jobs. So that should be this year's resolution for the retirees or soon to be retirees. You may just surprise yourself by keeping a small record of just how much you really do something for yourself.

SET ASIDE SOME TIME FOR YOURSELF.
