Congrats!!! Websters dictionary will have removed "retire" or "retired" as a word when I'm ready! don't think I could ever fully retire anyways. CONGRATULATIONS!!
Congrats Elf!! I've been retired for 6 years now. I try to live by the Toby Keith song. "Don't Let The Old Man In" Great Song, great lyrics. I've been a single Dad the last 13yrs. 4 kids 2 are married and have kids of their own. 5 grandkids. Then 1 daughter in college. 1 son living with me, he didn't want college . He started in the trades when he graduated this summer from H.S. He has a great work ethic. I have been very blessed with my family. Sit back and take it all in, Elf.
Had to stop and take a picture this morning of the sea smoke over the lake. Last drive to work for me. Now we just need a bunch of snow!

Congrats on the retirement Elf! It’s been a little over 3 years for me and I couldn’t be happier with my decision to get out of the official workforce. Life is so busy now, that I couldn’t imagine working again. Someone told me once to allow things to settle for at least the first year and avoid making any significant commitments. For me anyway, it was good advice. Enjoy the new life!
