Congratulations! On your retirement 3 years from today! :D
Supposedly it takes an average of three years to mentally shift gears into retirement mode.
That is when you are no longer in a hurry whenever you get behind the wheel, etc.

Thanks, Mickey!

I don't feel happy or sad - just calm. I don't recall when I have ever been this calm.

No kidding! Congratulations and a job well done.

I turned 50 recently and think forward to what that day will look like, hoping it's on my own terms as much as possible.

Now take care of yourself! Keep all the boogeymen away.

Stay busy, no sleeping late. Can you get social security supplement from where you worked?

Unless of course we have onemof those periodic public service purges and they offer me a really good package.

Of course I will need to keep working in some capacity, as my daughter will be 13.

Congratulations! Friday the 12th is my last day of full time employment. I turned in my notice this past Monday. After a break I will be working 3 days a week for the firm I started with. Full circle of life. Not sure how long I will do part time but until the end of the year seems feasible. I too feel calm about the decision.

Congrats! I have been retired for the past 13 years. I always say it is the best job I have ever had, just took a long time to get it. Took only one day to shift gears into it.
