First day of Retirement

Welcome to the world where everyday is Saturday and every night is Friday night.
I like that thought alot.
Today feels like Monday, the real first day.

Thanks for all the well-wishes boyz - yep, I got a list, have had a list for a long time.
But reading this thing this morning, I realized that some things I've thought of before are now possible -
I can call Ric and meet for breakfast
I could drive to Greenfield some day just to get pizza
I can finally go over to Giles and show his boy how to cast lead (if he hasn't already used that pot)
I could go visit Jim in "the patch" (if OSHA allows)
and it looks like I'm finally gonna fish Erie

Signed up last night for Golden Buckeye card because @switchhitter told me it's good for discounts at campsites and such...

Last night sleep score 85 (good)
Today agenda:
Go to pharmacy
dry cleaners
YMCA
prep gear for muzzy
fiddlefuck around

Again, thanks for the well-wishes - here I go !!

Congratulations, sir!!! (y)

I retired in March of '22 and absolutely love it. :)
I had quite a few people shake my hand and congratulate me, on my retirement. :unsure: At first I was kinda confused about being congratulated and then I thought about it. Yep...I made it, I'm finally here and this is what I worked my entire life for and now I've crossed the "finish line". :cool:

I have to remind myself that I need to keep active and not just sit around. Stay fit and maintain my health. 💯
I find myself hunting more now, than I ever did when I was working. It's like being on vacation and never having to go back to work.
