Construction work to retirement — he enjoys life

“I was born in Monterrey, Mexico, and came here a long time ago. I worked construction for many years. All of my life, I worked. I would get up, go to work, come back to my house, to my wife, watch TV and that’s it. Go to sleep. Then get up the next morning and do the same thing. No problems.

“I’m retired now. I live one block away from the park. I come here in the morning, walk around to get my exercise, sit on the bench to rest, talk to people and go back to my house. I talk to my wife, have lunch and go to sleep. The next day, I get up and do it again. No problems. I enjoy being retired. I enjoy life.”
