Thank you. I'm in a strange sort of limbo. This morning I just sent in my final report - ever. This is the last actual work-related duty I have left to me. I now will sit at my desk until 4 p.m. tomorrow afternoon with nothing to do but read blogs.
Beats the alternative. The imp in me wants to go to the supply closet and re-organize everything so nobody can find a pencil when they need it. Better to read stuff here.
Do you have firm plans for retirement activities? I had a three year stint of full retirement. I had a lot of plans. Did many with great vigor. I also look around the hose and property at some projects I should have taken care of 5 years ago. I need to be a little more efficient next spring when I re-retire.
I do not. Travel is a given. Beyond that I have this whole mental list I call "Possibilities." I really don't know which ones I'll do or if others will come up. I have told everyone that for the first six months if they call me up and ask me to do something, the answer will be "no." Not if it's just to be a warm body someplace like check in runners for a charitable 5k or something. But anything with actual ongoing responsibilities will be turned down. My job the first six months is to be retired. Then I'll figure out how to fill in around the edges of that. And maybe I'll be doing enough that I don't need to do any filling at all.
