Well, it's been 2 hours now. Retirement is working out quite well for me so far. |

It will take you a while to really realize you are retired. I retired Dec 2016 & it took me 6-8 months for it to really settle in. I was still waking up at 0330 as I did when I was working as a nurse until then. Now, gee I sleep until 0500. LOL ENJOY YOUR RETIREMENT, you deserve it!!! |

Congratz! The wife and I hope to get there in about 10 years. We are very actively getting things in order so that we hope not to have to work at McDs……. |

The last month is the worst, but then when the last week comes it goes very fast. My wife says I'm moving into the khaki phase of my life. Everyday on the last week I would come home toss my shirt in the wash and my dress pants in the trash. Still getting use to this new life. The burdens of responsibility have been lifted, but I still find myself checking my email way to often. |

Enjoy your retirement. You'll find plenty to do and you can do it at your own pace or not, it's your call. Your "job" now is to stay healthy. I've been fully retired for five years now. It only gets better. Your wife is right, Khaki is now my favorite color. Have fun. Gene |
