Trust me, retirement is everything I dreamed it would be.

Today I had my quarterly physician's appointment.

After visiting with my physician, I went to check out and schedule my follow up appointments.

During that time, the booker said she had 2 1/2 years until she could retire.

She found a future appointment at 08:30 AM, to which I jokingly replied, "Ma'am, the only morning appointments I do these days is for God on Sunday morning."

We laughed, and discussed retirement a bit.

You'll enjoy it.

I do volunteer work, still take continuing legal Ed classes, speak at local high schools, and just enjoy quiet, relaxing, easy going days gardening, looking over my books, my investments, and planning our monthly get away trips.

Each of us approaches retirement differently, which is as it should be.

We have a 90 year old widowed friend, and member of my wife's prayer group, who says she'll never retire.

She's a high school principal, next year will be her 65th year as an educator, and her 40th year as a high school principal.

Mimi says if she were retire, it would kill her.

To each his/her own...
